More on South Dakota Abortion Ban

Here's another article about the South Dakota Abortion Ban:

Why is it that citizens are okay with replacing the law-makers who signed the bill for the abortion ban, but not willing to sign a petition to postpone the passage of the bill until voters can vote on it in November? This abortion ban bill is crucial to the 3rd Wave, so I just want to keep everyone updated about what's going on with it. So far no one has taken this law to the courts, and the main battlefield is the petitions, but South Dakotans won't sign them. Please, everyone keep updated on this issue, and educate others, even after we complete this course. I'd venture to say one of the most crucial aspects of feminism is the right to choose, and we can't have that taken away from us.
