The Pennsylvania Senate easily overrode Governor Guy W. Shapp's veto of a bid to restrict abortion access. The 41 to 8 vote sends the bill to the House, which was expected to pass it, potentially becoming law without Shapp's signature. The bill would require spousal or parental consent for abortions under certain conditions, a provision Shapp called unconstitutional.
