Louisiana Enacts Pro-Life Law.(Kathleen Blanco )(Brief article)
On June 17, Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco signed into a law an abortion measure that will take effect if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade or if a constitutional amendment is ratified that would give states the authority to prohibit abortions. The Louisiana measure is commonly referred to as a "trigger" law, a law which takes effect provided something else takes place first.
Since this post-Roe activation law would only go into effect when Roe v. Wade is reversed, it should not be subject to any current constitutional challenge.
Under the new law abortions would be allowed to save the life of the mother or to prevent "a substantial risk of death due to a physical condition or to prevent the serious permanent impairment of a life-sustaining organ" of the woman.
