The bill will grant Minnesotans a “fundamental right” to abortion through all nine months of pregnancy, via any method and for any reason, with no age restrictions.

Carlie Kotyza-Witthuhn, DFL-Eden Prairie, is what Minnesota’s case law already allows.
Her bill simply “enshrines” these protections in state law, she argued.
