Legislators voted overwhelmingly in favor of the bill Wednesday after nearly all Democrat members of the body walked out in protest.<\/p>\n<p>The bill requires doctors to perform ultrasounds to check for a fetal heartbeat. If one is detected, women would be prevented from getting an abortion with some exceptions in cases of rape or incest or if the mother\u2019s life is in danger.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SouthCarolina?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SouthCarolina<\/a> House on Wednesday voted 79-35 in favor of the \u201cSouth Carolina Fetal Heartbeat and Protection from Abortion Act.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DXeBidbMZr\">https:\/\/t.co\/DXeBidbMZr<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 WCNC Charlotte (@wcnc) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wcnc\/status\/1362129709287550979?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 17, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The bill would not punish women who get illegal abortions, but those who perform them could face felony charges. Republicans blocked more than 100 proposed amendments by Democrats and spoke in favor of the measure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so tired of these celebrities saying, if I wouldn\u2019t have had an abortion, I couldn\u2019t have went on with my career,\u201d South Carolina State Rep. Melissa Oremus (R) said. \u201cWhat, what? I\u2019m here. You can still have your life, it\u2019s just going to be a little bit harder.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The bill already passed the Senate and is headed to Governor Henry McMaster\u2019s (R-S.C.) desk. He said he plans to sign it into law.<\/p>\n<p>The legislation will not take effect unless Roe v. Wade is overturned in the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/federal-agents-continue-to-crackdown-on-counterfeit-n95-masks\/\">Federal Agents Continue To Crackdown On Counterfeit N95 Masks<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2181218,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/dzm0ugdauank9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/GettyImages-1230857667-655x437.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"S.C.
