There are many questions concerning what the overturning of Roe vs Wade means from a legal standpoint. Last year, Gov. McMaster signed the Fetal Heartbeat Bill into law. That law says that abortion in South Carolina is illegal after an unborn baby develops a heartbeat, which is as quick as 6 weeks in many cases. The bill was originally blocked by federal courts.

That means abortion would be legal up to 6 weeks under the heartbeat bill. The full interview is below.
