Kentucky Senate approves two abortion bills

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Kentucky's Senate has approved a bill that would require doctors to make ultrasound images available to women seeking abortions.

Another would force women to get face-to-face consultations with medical professionals before getting an abortion.

Similar proposals have repeatedly cleared the Senate in recent years only to die in the Democratic-controlled House.

Many House lawmakers believe the proposals don't have enough support to be passed.
