What is the purpose of issuing the new law? [originaltext] Lawmakers in Nebra

Lawmakers in Nebraska have approved a big change to the state’s controversial Safe Haven Law. Under the new measure, children older than 30 days can not be dropped off at state hospitals. 35 children, many of them, preteens or even teenagers, have been abandoned in hospitals since the original law took effect in July. State lawmakers say it was intended to prevent newborns from being dumped in trash bins or even worse. The new law is expected to go into effect at midnight.
