Kansas lawmakers pass sweeping anti-abortion legislation

By Jeff Black, Staff Writer, NBC News

Kansas lawmakers approved sweeping anti-abortion legislation on Friday that says life begins at fertilization, forbids abortion based on gender and bans Planned Parenthood from providing sex education in schools.


In addition, the measure requires women to learn about fetal development before having an abortion.

The measure now goes to the desk of Republican Gov. Sam Brownback, who opposes abortion, and is expected to sign it.

The House passed the bill 90-30, The Associated Press reported. The Senate approved it by a 28-10 vote, according to Reuters.

Republicans have large majorities in both houses.

"This fulfills the legislative intent to create a pro-life state," Kathy Ostrowski, legislative director of Kansans for Life, told Reuters before the House vote.

Thirteen states, including Missouri, have similar language to the Kansas bill in their laws, the AP reported, citing the National Right to Life Committee.

The Kansas legislation is the latest in a push by national abortion opponents for new restrictions on the procedure. Those limits are seen as a direct challenge to the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade ruling in 1973 that legalized abortion.

Late last month, North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple signed the nation?s strictest anti-abortion measures into law. One statute bans abortions as early as six weeks into pregnancy.

An Arkansas law approved over Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe?s veto prohibits most abortions after about 12 weeks of pregnancy.

Abortion rights groups say they will challenge the new abortion laws in court.

Though the Kansas bill defines life as beginning at fertilization, it does not ban abortion from that point.

Reuters contributed to this report.

Lionel Messi injures hamstring against PSG

Associated Press Sports

updated 6:34 p.m. ET April 2, 2013

PARIS (AP) -Barcelona limped away from its Champions League quarterfinal at Paris Saint-Germain with superstar Lionel Messi sustaining a right hamstring injury and center half Javier Mascherano rupturing knee ligaments.

The eventful match finished 2-2 but Barcelona will be without Mascherano for six to eight weeks, and Messi is a major doubt for the return leg next week. He will be assessed further on Wednesday.

"Of course it will be a big loss if we lose Messi, the best player in the world," assistant coach Jordi Roura said through an interpreter. "But we have Cesc (Fabregas) and other options, so we are confident from that point of view."

Messi was substituted at halftime after scoring his 57th goal of the season with a clinical finish in the 38th minute to put Barcelona up 1-0, drifting into the left side of the area unmarked to plant a low shot into the opposite corner past goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu.

Messi already had a bloodied left knee by then, and was seen on the sideline clutching the back of his right leg shortly after.

Fabregas replaced him for the second half. Messi's goal was his 59th in the Champions League, second to all-time leader Raul Gonzalez's 71.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic canceled out Messi's opener in the 79th, before Xavi Hernandez's penalty with one minute left gave Barca the lead again. But PSG midfielder Blaise Matuidi salvaged a draw with a deflected strike four minutes into injury time.
