Laws SHOULD be enacted that require the permission of the father of the baby, as well as the mother of the baby, before any abortion can be performed. That would give each respective parent a legal veto, allowing each respective parent the opportunity to protect the life of their preborn baby daughter or son.
Laws of that kind would pave the way to a total ban on abortion from conception forward.
This law doesn't seem to do that, however, instead only declaring that if the mother unilaterally authorizes the murder of the baby via abortion, she has to tell the father of the baby what she did after the fact.
