Televangelist Pat Robertson said he thinks Alabama went “too far” with a controversial abortion bill that could punish doctors who perform abortions with life in prison.
“I think Alabama has gone too far,” he said Wednesday during an episode of “The 700 Club.” “There’s no exception for rape or incest. It’s an extreme law and they want to challenge Roe v. Wade.”
He continued: “But my humble view is that this is not the case we want to bring to the Supreme Court because I think this one will lose.”
The bill, which was signed into law by Gov. Kay Ivey on Wednesday, only allows exceptions “to avoid a serious health risk to the unborn child’s mother,” for ectopic pregnancy and if the “unborn child has a lethal anomaly.”
