Lawmakers override veto of Ky. abortion ban bill, now becomes law

Despite pro-choice advocates gathering at the state capitol in Frankfort on Wednesday, the House Bill 3 veto was overridden in a 31-6 vote.

Kentucky doesn't need access to abortion. Kentucky needs access to sex education, personal responsibility for your actions and birth control.

[RmsDome]

I’d like to see more push for pregnancy prevention and more of a push for adoption, there are already too many people in the world that need help and better lives.

Many of the women holding up the signs are well past the need for abortion access.

It amazes me that people are against murder yet claim abortion is a right to have. I feel men and woman need more guidance on how to act with morals and feelings instead of lust. I'm not buying the condom broke or I forgot birth control crap

[daveray]

I hope all the people protest by moving to blue states.

When women say my body my choice they forget that they had the choice to not engage in activities that could lead to them being with child ...they had the choice

[Templestone]

There is much to be gained in the abolition of abortion.

Do your part and vote democrats out nationwide

[swisscheese]

Why do people think its okay to kill children?

[annastasia]

Now this blows my mind because I wouldn't have thought that they cared about anything considering the fact that they revoted Mitch McConnell after he told them that he wants to watch them suffer in poverty...

[ValerieDee]

I agree that's 4 months into your pregnancy. If they found a cell on Mars they would worship it.

[ApacheJay]

Excellent. Now do my state. This will only result in the freaks of society moving back to CA, NJ, DC, etc. Good bye.

Time for girls to spotweld their knees together

[skymeadow]

Yes it should be banned except for very specific circumstances

Abortions ban laws are to divide and a lot of politicians today are doing a lot of things to divide this nation. Instead of going to the middle they are either far right or far left. This issue is all about rallying up the religious base and making it about faith. Why don’t people understand that this country was built on individual rights not religion. " Our country's founders -- who were of different religious backgrounds themselves -- knew the best way to protect religious liberty was to keep the government out of religion. So they created the First Amendment -- to guarantee the separation of church and state. This fundamental freedom is a major reason why the U.S. has managed to avoid a lot of the religious conflicts that have torn so many other nations apart." This mean you have a right in United States to pick any religion you want without being prosecuted by the law because of your beliefs, this also means a person who does not believe or has no faith in religion can not be prosecuted based on your faith. Mixing the two is a slippery slop because right now the law is using it to take away another’s person’s right but tomorrow it may be used to take away yours and the next law may not be in YOUR religion. So think about all those other religions what right does a woman has.


DONT GIVE ME THE BULL ABOUT YOUR FAITH. If that is it then that person has to stand before GOD and be judge not you. And when you stand before GOD how do you think he will feel about how you threw stones.

Why all these people want to kill their kids? That's messed up. We have a waiting list for newborns, lots of people would love to have the baby, stop killing them. And yes, it's a baby.

I just saw California is pushing banning all gas operated cars.

[cindymanning]

[sooz]

"Kentucky wants abortion access"
There I fixed it for you.

[springspring]

Land of the free, let people choose the option they want. Every individual and family understands their own issues. Let them decide what options are best for themselves. Keep your beliefs to yourself.
