North Dakota Senate Candidate Would Make Abortion A Felony

Posted by | September 4, 2012 15:14 | Filed under: Top Stories


Rick Berg would criminalize abortion as a Class AA felony.

Berg, who is running against former Democratic Attorney General Heidi Heitkamp, voted with a minority of the state house in 2007 to make terminating a pregnancy illegal, in a bill that only made exception for when the life of the mother is endangered.

Berg was granted a coveted speaking slot at the Republican National Convention last week, just weeks after fellow Senate candidate Rep. Todd Akin drew bipartisan outrage for outrageously claiming that pregnancies don’t occur in cases of “legitimate rape.”
