Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed Tuesday (March 9) a bill that prohibits abortions except in cases involving the health of the mother. The pro-life measure does not have an allowance for abortions in the case of rape or incest.
The bill, SB 6 (now Act 309), sailed through the supermajority Republican state Legislature. With 78 Republicans in the House and 27 in the Senate, the bill met little resistance in either chamber.
Though litigation is expected over the law, without court intervention it would go into effect in Arkansas on Aug. 3, 2021.
Hutchinson had voiced concerns about the measure due to the lack of a provision for rape or incest. In signing the bill, he acknowledged that concern, but it did not stop him from making the bill state law.

Republican state lawmakers on Tuesday continued their attempts to implement sweeping new restrictions on abortion.
House Bill 1102 would add providing an abortion to a list of unprofessional conduct for doctors and require their license be suspended for at least one year. The bill allows an exception for abortions to save a mother’s life or prevent irreversible physical impairment.
Gloria Pedro with Planned Parenthood Great Plains noted GOP lawmakers passed the bill the day after International Women’s Day. HB1102 is just another politically motivated attempt by opponents of abortion to attack providers and intervene in personal and private decisions by playing politics with women’s health. We have to remember, there can be no gender equity without equal access to health care, Pedro said.
