The Illinois Senate advanced a measure to repeal the state’s Parental Notice of Abortion Act early Tuesday evening amid staunch opposition from Republicans and religious groups. The repeal bill passed the Senate Executive Committee on a 9-6-1 vote Tuesday shortly after 5 p.m. and passed the full Senate 32-22 shortly after 8 p.m. Its future in the House was less certain as of Tuesday night.
