(HuffPo) — The Tea Party-controlled New Hampshire House of Representatives overrode the governor’s veto of a partial birth abortion ban that opponents deemed as “dangerous” in its potential to jeopardize the health of women in rural areas.

The state House and Senate voted on Wednesday to override Democratic Gov. John Lynch’s veto of a bill that would outlaw partial birth abortion in all but emergency situations and implement new procedures during emergencies. The bill will require that no partial birth abortion to save the life of the mother can be granted until two doctors from two different hospitals certify that the procedure is necessary. Opponents, including Lynch, said that the requirement could harm New Hampshire women, particularly in rural areas.

“It put a woman in a rural area in a position where they need to find a second doctor to examine them,” Rep. Candace Bouchard (D-Concord) said. “This bill is dangerous. This bill does not use actual medical science. Imagine physicians telling those family members that state law prohibits them from providing life-saving medical care to a loved one. We need to trust our medical community.”
