U.S. state of Arkansas passes near-total abortion ban

Little Rock, March 10 (RHC)-- The U.S. state of Arkansas has passed a near-total ban on abortions.  The ban makes an exception only for life-or-death medical emergencies and criminalizes providers who violate the law with a fine of up to $100,000 and up to 10 years in prison. 

The ban is not set to go into effect until the summer.  Both the ACLU and Planned Parenthood are planning challenges.  Anti-abortion factions are hoping legal battles will renew a challenge to the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling.
