Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon has signed into law the nation’s first explicit ban on abortion pills since they became the predominant choice for abortion in the U.S. in recent years.
懷俄明州州長馬克‧戈登簽署美國第一個明確禁止墮胎藥的法律，因為近年來墮胎藥已成為美國墮胎的主要選擇。
Gordon, a Republican, signed the bill Friday night while allowing a separate measure restricting abortion to become law without his signature.
共和黨人戈登週五晚間簽署該法案，同時允許一項限制墮胎的單獨措施，在沒有他簽署的情況下成為法律。
The pills are already banned in 13 states that have blanket bans on all forms of abortion, and 15 states already have limited access to abortion pills. Until now, however, no state had passed a law specifically prohibiting such pills, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a research group that supports abortion rights.
根據支持墮胎權的研究團體「特馬赫研究所」說法，這種藥丸已經在13個全面禁止所有形式墮胎的州被禁止，15個州已經限制取得墮胎藥。然而，到目前為止，還沒有一個州通過一項專門禁止此類藥丸的法律。
The Republican governor’s decision on the two measures comes after the issue of access to abortion pills took center stage this week in a Texas court. (AP)
