Gov. McMaster Working To Get Fetal Heartbeat Act In Effect

The governor of South Carolina plans to enact a state law that would ban most abortions.

The Fetal Heartbeat Act was previously blocked by a federal judge, but was appealed by Governor McMaster in March. After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade on Friday, McMaster said his administration was filing motions to get the Fetal Heartbeat Act into effect.

An ad hoc committee to prepare for a special session to discuss abortion has already been formed by state lawmakers.
