The GOP-controlled Louisiana House advanced a bill criminalizing abortion coerced 'by means of fraud,' penalizing coercers with fines and imprisonment. Pro-abortion groups and Vice President Kamala Harris criticized the bill. The bill honors a mother-daughter duo who endured a coerced abortion, and an amendment categorizes abortion drugs as controlled substances but permits non-abortion prescriptions.
