North Carolina Republicans override governor's veto to ban abortion after 12 weeks.
TL;DR Summary
North Carolina's Republican-controlled Legislature has successfully overrode the Democratic governor's veto to ban most abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy. The new limits are set to take effect on July 1. Bans on abortion throughout pregnancy are in effect in 14 states, and South Carolina and Nebraska are also considering new abortion limits. The U.S. Supreme Court last year struck down the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which established a nationwide right to abortion.
