The guests participated by remote connection from Sioux Falls about the abortion ballot initiative in South Dakota on whether to approve a law signed by Republican Governor Mike Rounds making abortion a crime except to save a pregnant woman’s life. The state’s legislature passed the law in February to prompt a court challenge expecting the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn its 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion. However, state opponents of the law collected signatures to put the abortion ban to a public vote in the November election. The guests responded to telephone calls. close
