If there was any doubt that conservative state legislators are dead-set on challenging Roe v. Wade, this past week has proved it. On May 14th, the Alabama state Senate passed the strictest abortion law in the country, which would ban almost all abortions in the state—with no exceptions for rape or incest. And yesterday, May 15th, Alabama Governor Kay Ivey officially signed the law, meaning that authorities can start enforcing the ban in six months. This news looks bleak for women in Alabama, but fortunately, there are ways to help.
