Great... the last line of the article... "If we take care of morality,” bill supporter David Brumbaugh, a Republican, said during deliberations, "God will take care of the economy."

Reminds me of the Congressman who once said that God put dinosaurs into the ground so that we would have oil.
Oklahoma lawmakers approve bill to revoke licenses of abortion doctors | Reuters
Oklahoma lawmakers approve bill to revoke licenses of abortion doctors
An Oklahoma bill that could revoke the license of any doctor who performs an abortion has headed to the governor, with opponents saying the measure in unconstitutional and promising a legal battle against the cash-strapped state if it is approved.
In the Republican-dominated legislature, the state's House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved a Senate bill late on Thursday. Governor Mary Fallin, a Republican, has not yet indicated whether she will sign it.
Under the bill, doctors who perform abortions would risk losing their medical licenses. Exemptions would be given for those who perform the procedure for reasons including protecting the mother or removing a miscarried fetus.
"This is our proper function, to protect life,” said Senator Nathan Dahm, the Republican who authored the bill.
A handful of representatives argued against the bill, saying it violated the Constitution by prohibiting a doctor from performing a medical procedure that was legal under law.
The conservative view of less intrusive government…………… only a selective right offered but not to all

Well, sadly the human rights of women are not safe in the hands of republican anti-choice extremists/republican lawmakers. Not even the constitutional rights of women are safe in the hands of extremists like those in Oklahoma who are trying to get their state sued and kicked in the nether regions by the courts when it hits the court system. Stupid, intrusive, woman-hating, extremist freedom/human rights deniers.
you last statement strikes me as funny.... abortion is very much a selective right only offered to some.... reality and biology dictates that only pregnant women are afforded the right.
in any event, this law goes way to far.... it's a fundamental ban on abortion and it can't pass constitutional muster as such.
Does anyone still wonder why Oklahoma is yet another one of the crapholes in this nation? Stupid people making stupid laws and wasting the little resources they have doing so.Oklahoma lawmakers approve bill to revoke licenses of abortion doctors | Reuters
