Rhode Island Gov Gina Raimondo has signed a bill that would legalize abortions up to birth in the northeastern state.

The state Senate voted Wednesday to pass the radical bill that would allow late-term abortions on viable unborn babies, including partial-birth and dismemberment abortions. Recent amendments appear to provide some limits on late-term abortions but still allow them for the “health” of the mother, a term so broadly defined that basically any situation could qualify.

Barth Bracy, executive director of the Rhode Island Right to Life Committee, described the legislation as a “New York-style abortion expansion bill.”

But that didn’t stop the state’s Democrat governor for putting her name on the bill shortly after the legislature gave it the final approval.

“Fundamentally, this bill is about healthcare,” said Governor Raimondo “The majority of Rhode Islanders are for it. Which isn’t to say it’s not controversial, and I hear from both sides, but I believe it’s the right thing to do.”
