Gov. Mark Gordon (R-WY) signed a fetal heartbeat abortion ban into law on Monday, but, in doing so, raised his reservations about the legislation providing zero exceptions for pregnancies caused by rape or incest.

The law provides an exception for pregnancies that may risk the mother’s life or health, which the anti-abortion governor supports. However, he disagrees with the law’s language that excludes the other two common exceptions for abortions.
