Mike Beebe for his decision to veto a state bill that would ban abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy or when a fetal heartbeat is detected. Planned Parenthood tweeted:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Thank you <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23Arkansas&amp;src=hash\">#Arkansas<\/a> Gov.

Jason Rapert, the Republican who authored the law, says he thinks lawmakers struck the right balance. He notes the measure includes exceptions for &#8220;rape, incest, to save the life of the mother and to prevent irreparable harm to the mother&#8217;s health, in addition to giving an exception for fatal fetal anomalies.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-25481\" alt=\"heart-baby\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/heart-baby-300x170.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/heart-baby-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/heart-baby.jpg 389w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Although Planned Parenthood strongly supported Gov. Beebe\u2019s decision to veto the bill, the Arkansas Legislature had a different response. The Legislature voted to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2013\/02\/28\/arkansas-senate-overrides-veto-abortion-bill\/\">override<\/a> Gov.Beebe\u2019s veto and enact the Human Heartbeat Bill.<\/p>\n<p>Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards released a <a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/incensed-arkansas-abortion-law-abortion-rights-activists-plan\/story?id=18677613\">statement<\/a> expressing her organizations displeasure with the decision:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We are deeply disappointed that the Arkansas legislature voted to impose the most restrictive ban on safe and legal abortion in the country.<\/p>\n<p>The majority of Arkansans &#8211; and the majority of Americans &#8211; don&#8217;t want politicians involved in a woman&#8217;s personal medical decisions about her pregnancy. &#8220;Governor Beebe rightfully vetoed this legislation and the legislature would have been wise to let the veto stand as this bill is clearly unconstitutional.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>PP President Richards assumes that the majority of Americans don\u2019t want politicians involved in their medical decisions concerning pregnancy, but are her statements based on fact or on opinion? Gallup Polls from 2012 declare that Americans frown on second- and third-trimester abortions. Results from the polls give these revealing <a href=\"http:\/\/sas-origin.onstreammedia.com\/origin\/gallupinc\/GallupSpaces\/Production\/Cms\/POLL\/yl1ank9qykedai7hgkhzlq.gif\">statistics<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A solid majority of Americans (61%) believe abortion should generally be legal in the first three months of pregnancy, while 31% disagree. However support drops off sharply, to 27%, for second-trimester abortions, and further still, to 14%, for third-trimester abortions. Gallup has found this pattern each time it has asked this question since 1996, indicating that Americans attach much greater value to the fetus as it approaches viability, starting in the second trimester.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sixty-four percent of people polled in the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/sas-origin.onstreammedia.com\/origin\/gallupinc\/GallupSpaces\/Production\/Cms\/POLL\/yl1ank9qykedai7hgkhzlq.gif\">survey<\/a> believe that abortion should be\u00a0illegal\u00a0in the second three months of pregnancy.\u00a0According to the Gallup research, it appears that Arkansas&#8217;s heartbeat bill is right in step with what many Americans want. Along with growing public support\u00a0against\u00a0abortion,\u00a0the number of states pursuing similar heartbeat legislation has risen over the last decade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-28754 aligncenter\" alt=\"yl1ank9qykedai7hgkhzlq\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/yl1ank9qykedai7hgkhzlq.gif\" width=\"501\" height=\"352\" \/><\/p>\n<p>ABC news just released an <a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/OTUS\/states-banned-abortions\/story?id=18703520\">article<\/a> titled \u201cWhy are so many states banning abortion?\u201d ABC <a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/OTUS\/states-banned-abortions\/story?id=18703520\">writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Last week, Arkansas passed the nation&#8217;s most restrictive abortion law, enraging abortion-rights supporters and sparking plans for a court challenge. But that law followed a wave of legislation in the last three years: Since 2010, 10 states have passed outright bans on abortions for women who have been pregnant for more than 20 weeks, and in some cases earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Before 2010, no states banned abortions outright at any stage of pregnancy. Nebraska started the trend with a 20-week abortion ban in April 2010. In 2011, Alabama, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, and Oklahoma followed suit, and in 2012, Arizona, Georgia, and Louisiana passed curbs of their own.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It seems that not everyone believes that protecting the life of a pre-born child is \u201cextreme.\u201d Contrary\u00a0to Richards&#8217;s belief, politicians\u00a0aren&#8217;t the only ones supporting anti-abortion legislation. Mary Spaulding Balch, director of state legislation for National Right to Life, gave these <a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/incensed-arkansas-abortion-law-abortion-rights-activists-plan\/story?id=18677613\">remarks<\/a> after the legislature first passed the Heartbeat Bill:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Unborn children jerk away from painful stimuli, their stress hormones increase, and they require anesthesia before any fetal surgery. With today&#8217;s override of the governor&#8217;s veto, Arkansas has become the eighth state to pass legislation protecting unborn children capable of feeling pain from the violence of abortion.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A <em>NY Times<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2013\/03\/12\/us\/arkansas-senator-jason-raperts-abortion-ban.html?pagewanted=all&amp;_r=0\">article<\/a> titled \u201cArkansas\u2019s Abortion Ban and One Man\u2019s Strong Will\u201d shares the response of pro-life leaders to the passing of the Heartbeat Bill.<\/p>\n<p>Janet Porter, president of Faith2Action, said, \u201cWhat happened in Arkansas will definitely encourage others to take similar action.\u201d Bryan Fischer, a spokesman at the American Family Association, called the bill\u2019s passing \u201ca milestone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <em>NY Times<\/em> reports that State Senator Jason Rapert, the designer of the law, isn&#8217;t\u00a0intimidated by the threats against it.
