It makes no sense to pass such a bill that wouldn't have a clause that allows the procedure if the mother's life is at risk. It's like saying the mother has to give her life in order to save the life of the fetus/baby and I think that this is very hypocritical.
People are already calling it a "historical vote" or a "historical day" but there is much a battle to still be had.

Although I am very pro-choice, I don't think women should be having abortions that late in the game
unless there is a medical reason such as the health of the mother, etc. However, I think this bill was just a step in the anti-abortionist's attempts to illegalize abortion altogether.
