There are those on the center and left who are opposed to abortion as well, but the organized opposition that is intent on influencing policy at the state and federal level is from the religious right.
From those who are religious fundamentalists and extremist n their rhetoric, like the Family Research Council, to those who are religious fundamentalists and extremists in their actions, like Operation Rescue.
And it is not just happening in South Dakota. Since the most recent election, there have been harsh anti-abortion bills introduced in state legislatures across the country and several bills in Congress as well.....all coming from social conservative religious right.
