Minnesota Senate easily approves limits on abortions

Minnesota Senate easily approves limits on abortions | StarTribune.com: A pair of bills that would dramatically limit abortion rights passed their final legislative hurdle on Monday and will soon be headed to the governor's desk. The GOP-led Minnesota Senate voted 40-26 to eliminate state funding of abortions for poor women and voted 42-24 to prohibit all abortions 20 weeks after conception. The votes split largely along party lines, though several DFLers [Democrats for Life?] joined Republicans in support of the restrictions.
