The Illinois Senate has approved an expansive abortion bill that would declare abortion to be a “fundamental right” in the state and would remove regulations on abortion clinics and doctors.
Shortly before midnight on the final day of the legislative session, the Senate approved the bill by a vote of 34-20. It had passed the House last week in a 64-50 vote.
The bill now goes to the desk of Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who has indicated that he will sign it.
Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago said the vote “marks a sad moment in our history as a State.”
