Gov. John Bel Edwards calls the bill 'anti-woman' and 'patently unconstitutional.'

But it got its first legislative hearing last week, less than two days after the leak of a draft U.S. Supreme Court opinion indicating the high court is preparing to overturn decisions upholding a constitutional right to abortion.
