Indiana, Florida Lawmakers OK Anti-Abortion Bills 
--------------------------------------------------



Lawmakers in Indiana and Florida have approved measures imposing
sweeping curbs on abortion. The Indiana measure would ban abortions
after 20 weeks into pregnancy and strip all funding to the local chapter
of Planned Parenthood. The Florida bill would bar federal health reform
grants from paying for abortions and force all women to pay for
ultrasounds before they can end their pregnancy.
