Updated: March 9, 2013

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. -- The Natural State now has the most restrictive abortion law in the country.

The Arkansas House of Representatives voted to override Governor Mike Beebe's veto of the 12-week abortion ban by a vote of 56-33 on Wednesday.

This comes just one day after the Senate voted to override the veto, and one week after both the House and Senate voted to override the Governor's veto of the ban on abortions after 20 weeks.
