Oklahoma AG: 'Womb is Now, in Oklahoma, the Safest Place for a Child'
Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt and the state’s attorney general, John O’Connor, held a press conference on Friday, June 24, to celebrate their swift ban on abortion in Oklahoma following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade.
In April, Gov Stitt signed a so-called “trigger law” which, once Roe v Wade was overturned, was certified by O’Connor, thereby introducing an immediate ban on abortions in Oklahoma, except in cases where the parent’s life is in danger.
“When I ran for governor, I promised Oklahomans that I would sign every piece of pro-life legislation that hit my desk, and I am thrilled to have kept that promise," Stitt told media at the Oklahoma State Capitol.
The governor lauded O’Connor, whom he said had been “fighting this fight” against abortion rights “for his entire career.”
O’Connor said abortion was now illegal in Oklahoma “from the point of conception,” and urged other states to follow their lead.
