Kansas set to enact life begins at fertilization law
Kansas moves toward one of the nation’s strictest abortion laws defining life as beginning at fertilization. The House passed the bill 90 to 30 after the Senate backed it 28 to 10. Gov. Sam Brownback is expected to sign. The measure bans sex education by clinics staff, tax credits for abortion services, and abortion tied to fetal gender, and could pave the way to a total ban if Roe v. Wade is overturned.
