US-POLITICS-ABORTION-SOUTH CAROLINA-DEMONSTRATION

Abortion rights advocates and lawmakers hold a press conference before debate of a bill that would restrict abortions after six weeks, at the South Carolina State House in Columbia, South Carolina, on May 16, 2023. The General Assembly was supposed to adjourn on May 11, 2023, but has decided to remain in session to debate a bill, which is nearly identical to a previous restrictive 6 week abortion ban that was struck down as unconstitutional by the state Supreme Court in January 2023. This bill bans all abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, with exceptions for rape, incest, and fetal anomalies. (Photo by Logan Cyrus / AFP) (Photo by LOGAN CYRUS/AFP via Getty Images)
