Kentucky lawmakers overwhelmingly voted Tuesday in favor of passing a bill to criminalize performing a common abortion method after 11 weeks of pregnancy.

The bill, which sailed through the state House of Representatives with a 75-13 vote, would ban abortions performed using a procedure known as dilation and evacuation (D&E), except in cases of medical emergencies. Since it passed the state Senate earlier this month, it only needs Gov. Matt Bevin’s signature in order to become law.

D&Es, which involve removing a fetus using suction and surgical tools, are generally seen as the safest way to end a second-trimester pregnancy and are by far the most common method used to do so. About 16 percent of Kentucky abortions are performed using the procedure, Reuters reported.
