South Dakota has passed the most restrictive abortion ban in the country. Its authors have stated that they intend this to be a direct challenge to the 1973 Supreme Court decision of Roe v Wade. This is the most divisive issue to hit the Conservative wing of the Republican Party since Harriett Miers was nominated…
