Gov. Sam Brownback, R-Kansas, along with Rep. Steve Brunk, R-Bel Aire and Sen. Garrett Love, R-Montezuma, and members of Kansans For Life, are scheduled to be at Thomas More Prep-Marian High School Tuesday, April 28, for a ceremonial signing of Senate Bill 95.
Brownback formally signed SB 95, the Kansas Unborn Child from Protection of Dismemberment Abortion Act, April 7 in Topeka.
TMP-M is the final location of four ceremonial signings Brownback will conduct tomorrow. The TMP-M event is scheduled for 3:30 p.m.
The others are at a Catholic church education building in Lenexa and Catholic high schools in Pittsburg and Wichita.
The measure takes effect July 1 and is the nation’s first ban on a procedure that critics describe as dismembering a fetus. Oklahoma passed similar legislation April 9.
Abortion rights supporters say such procedures are often the safest for women seeking to terminate pregnancies during the second trimester.
