South Dakota abortion ban up in the air

The South Dakota law that would ban most abortions may be put on hold with the filing of a petition demanding the law be overturned. Now South Dakota voters will have a chance to decide the question in November.

Guests

• Don Dahlin: Acting chair of the political science department at the University of South Dakota.
• Jan Nicolay: Coordinator for the "South Dakota Campaign for Healthy Families," which organized the petition drive.
• Leslee Unruh: President of Abstinence Clearinghouse.
