In Kansas a bill had been up to make it more difficult to get late term abortions. The Governor of the state Kathleen Sebelius vetoed the bill after state legislators passed it. Sebelius' track record has been consistent on abortion related bills, she has been a firm pro-choice advocate. She has been nominated by president Obama to lead the Department of Health and Human Services which helps to advice on health legislation and medical legislation. If Sebelius' nomination is upheld by the US Senate it will be a great step for abortion rights if a decidedly pro-choice woman is the leader of the Department of HHS.
Here is an article which outlines Kansas' vetoed bill and Sebelius' past abortion record.
