Since ‘Roe’ was overturned last spring, eradicating the federal foundation for legalized abortion, the Biden administration has gotten creative in its attempts to increase abortion access.

The legislation, proposed by Graham in the Senate and Smith in the House on Sept. 13, would ban abortion after 15 weeks, except in cases of rape, incest, or when the life of the mother is in danger.
