Kentucky took a step closer toward preparing for a possible post-Roe v. Wade era on Friday, Feb. 15, 2019. The Kentucky House has passed a bill that would ban most abortions in the state if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns its decision legalizing the procedure nationwide. The bill passed on a 69-20 vote Friday after a long, emotional debate. The measure now goes to the Republican-controlled Senate. The measure would take effect if the landmark Roe v. Wade decision is overturned or the U.S. Constitution is amended to restore states' authority to prohibit abortion. (AP Photo/Ed Reinke, File)

In this Jan. 31, 2019, file photo, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer speaks to the media at the Michigan State Police headquarters in Dimondale, Mich. The first tussle between the Democratic Governor and the Republican-led Legislature isn't over how to fix the roads, overhaul school funding or tackle the state's high car insurance premiums. Instead, they're clashing over the environment _ specifically how Michigan adopts regulations and permit requirements for businesses and citizens. Whitmer recently abolished panels created last year. Now GOP lawmakers may reject her order. (Matthew Dae Smith/Lansing State Journal via AP, File)
