The West Virginia House of Delegates has passed a sweeping abortion ban that makes providing the procedure a felony, punishable by up to ten years in prison. The measure will now go to the Senate for consideration, and includes exceptions for victims of rape and incest, as well as for medical emergencies. The Senate will take up the bill when they convene at 9 a.m. today. Republicans have majorities in both chambers, and the bill is likely to complete passage as soon as the end of the week.
