The New York Times reports that the measure, which is scheduled to take effect in August, will “ban nearly all abortions,” including “abortion once a fetal heartbeat is ‘detectable,’ which can be as early as six weeks into a pregnancy.” In addition, the law also would ban sex-selective abortions and abortions based on genetic defects, such as Down Syndrome.
