One of the laws requires women to undergo an ultrasound and listen to a detailed description of the fetus before getting an abortion. An anti-abortion group called it one of the most restrictive measures in the country. The other prohibits pregnant women from seeking damages if physicians fail to tell them their fetus has birth defects. Supporters say it's an attempt to keep pregnant women from discriminating against fetuses with disabilities. "Both laws will be challenged and, in all likelihood, overturned by the courts as unconstitutional," said Gov. Brad Henry. Read These Next Mark Zuckerberg's 'list' has Silicon Valley buzzing.
