Alabama Gov. Bentley Signs Into Law Dismemberment Abortion Ban

Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley signed legislation that bans dismemberment abortions, a procedure during the second trimester of pregnancy in which the unborn baby’s limbs are torn from his or her body.

“I am a strong pro-life individual,” said Bentley, reports the Associated Press. “I am for life, and always will be.”

Bentley signed the legislation prohibiting abortion by dismemberment – also known as Dilation & Evacuation (D&E) – and also approved a measure that denies licenses or license renewals to abortion clinics within 2,000 feet of public elementary and middle schools.

According to the Times Daily, the Alabama Women’s Center for Reproductive Alternatives is across the street from the Edward H. White Middle School and would likely have to relocate due to the new law. When the abortion clinic proximity bill was passed in the state House, Democrats reportedly began singing, “We Shall Overcome.”

“I don’t feel like these types of facilities need to be anywhere near our children,” said Rep. Ed Henry (R), who sponsored the bill.

Abortion business Planned Parenthood, abortion industry political advocacy organization NARAL, and the ACLU are opposed to the measures.
