Lawmakers submitted this year's version of the abortion ban Tuesday in Pierre. 

The bill will be officially introduced in the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
 
Unlike the law voters defeated in November, this one has exceptions that go beyond saving the life of the mother.  The three primary exceptions here are for the health of the mother, and in cases of rape and incest. But each of those exceptions are still very specific.

This new abortion ban bill allows abortions in cases of rape. But the victim has to report that rape to police within 50 days. If it's statutory rape, the victim must give the name and last known address of the rapist. 

Doctors would have to give DNA tests of the mother and aborted fetus to police. 

Under the new bill, doctors can end pregnancies that are a result of incest. But the doctor would be required to report the incest to police, including the name and last known address of both people involved. 

And before performing the abortion in that case, the doctor would have to tell the mother that counseling is available, and give her the address of the nearest Social Services office. 

It would also allow a doctor to perform an abortion if the pregnancy would "cause a very significant impairment of the functioning of a major bodily organ or system." 

But before that, the mother would have to get a second opinion from another doctor. 

And in the event of any abortion, the bill requires the doctor to send a written statement to the department of health explaining the reasons why it was performed and all the circumstances surrounding the abortion.

The penalties for this bill are actually more strict than last year's. Under this bill, doctors who perform abortions would be charged with a Class-4 felony and face up to 10 years in prison.
