CURTIS, Neb. -- Last week, the city council of Curtis, Nebraska considered the second reading of an ordinance to make performing an abortion or aiding one illegal within the city limits of Curtis. 

During public comment, two female residents from Curtis spoke against the ordinance and two female residents from Curtis spoke in favor of the ordinance. 

Another female resident from Curtis encouraged the city council, regardless of what happens with the ordinance, to have resources in place to help women who find themselves in an unexpected pregnancy. 

Another reading is not all the Curtis ordinance must survive. 

Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson will give his legal opinion. 

According to Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn, there are a total of 42 cities across America with ordinances outlawing abortion within their city limits. 

Two municipalities in Nebraska, Hayes Center and Blue Hill, both passed their ordinances in April of this year.
