Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt signed a bill on Tuesday banning abortions except for medical emergencies. SB 612 makes abortions, or attempts at abortion, a felony. Punishment includes a $100,000 fine or a maximum of ten years in jail, or both. Governor Stitt did not hide his intent behind the bill, saying he wanted Oklahoma to be “the most pro-life state in the country.”

Just last month, Arizona passed a 15-week abortion ban. Oklahoma’s ban, however, takes it a step further by banning all abortions except for medical emergencies. A medical emergency is clearly defined in the bill, which states that abortions can  only be performed to save the life of the pregnant woman who is “endangered by (a) physical disorder, physical illness or physical injury.”

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments for Mississippi’s more limited 15-week ban last December. That ban has led some conservatives to call for the court to overturn the precedent set by Roe v. Wade, which grants the right to terminate a pregnancy. A decision in the Mississippi case is expected by this summer.

Oklahoma’s ban, however, might ultimately force abortion back onto the Supreme Court’s docket. Both the ACLU and Planned Parenthood released statements attacking the ban.  As the Supreme Court prepares its decision for Mississippi’s ban, advocates and opponents alike await to see if they will also take up a challenge to the Oklahoma bill. Even if the Supreme Court upholds a 15-week ban, they might find a total ban too restrictive.
