Governor Wolf and his wife joined women’s health advocates, medical professionals and representatives to denounce the fast-tracking of Senate Bill 3 – the bill that restricts elective abortions to 20 weeks.
Wolf threatened that if it reached his desk, he would veto the bill.
The Pennsylvania Senate recently passed the bill, despite bi-partisan opposition, through committee and the floor in just three days with limited debate and no expert witnesses or public hearings.
The bill now awaits action by the house of representatives, where a similar version passed last session.
