“A Republican-controlled South Dakota House committee declined Wednesday to consider a proposal from Gov. Kristi Noem aimed at banning nearly all abortions, stifling a top item on the governor’s agenda,” the AP AP reports.

“The Republican governor loudly trumpeted her proposal this year, which would have mimicked the private enforcement of a Texas law and prohibited abortions once medical professionals can detect fetal cardiac activity.”

2. Are they blocking it because it goes too far or because it doesn't go far enough?

I don't trust anyone in this kayfabe any further than I could throw Mt. Rushmore.

...they would have nothing on which to fundraise.
