'D.C. does stuff like that, not South Dakota,' Governor Kristi Noem said after lawmakers declined to consider her proposal.
A Republican-controlled South Dakota House committee declined Wednesday to consider a proposal from Governor Kristi Noem aimed at banning nearly all abortions, stifling a top item on the governor's agenda.
Gosch said he shared Noem's goal of banning all abortions but that the language she proposed would"jeopardize" the state's involvement in a separate legal battle with Planned Parenthood, which operates the state's only clinic that regularly provides abortions., but in-state groups flagged what they saw as problems with the bill.
He added that he too was worried it would endanger the state's standing in the case against Planned Parenthood, but that he hoped the governor would make revisions and bring it back.
