Georgia may soon follow the line of states that have moved to ban or severely limit the practice of abortion following the recent Supreme Court ruling overturningOn Wednesday, a federal appeals court ruled that the Peach State’s previously blocked six-week abortion ban may proceed after it was stayed in a lower court’s injunction.
“Georgia’s law provides exceptions for rape and incest, provided a police report is filed, and for fetuses younger than 20 weeks,” it continued. “It also will allow for later abortions in cases of a medical emergency, and if a doctor determined pregnancy to be ‘medically futile.'” “Georgia’s prohibition on abortions after detectable human heartbeat is rational. ‘[R]espect for and preservation of prenatal life at all stages of development’ is a legitimate interest,” the court ruled. “The Georgia Legislature’s findings acknowledge a state interest in “providing full legal recognition to an unborn child.’ That ‘legitimate interest provide[s] a rational basis for’ and ‘justif[ies]’ the Act.
