A federal lawsuit filed asks a judge to block an Alabama law that outlaws almost all abortions, the most far-reaching attempt by a conservative state to seek new restrictions on the procedure.
A federal lawsuit filed Friday asks a judge to block an Alabama law that outlaws almost all abortions, the most far-reaching attempt by a conservative state to seek new restrictions on the procedure.
“For over 46 years — since the Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade — U.S. law has recognized the fundamental constitutional right to make the profoundly important and personal decision whether or not to terminate a pregnancy,” the lawsuit reads. She said the law “further shames” women seeking abortions and “punishes providers like myself, and stigmatizes essential healthcare.”
None of the laws has taken effect and all are expected to be blocked by the courts as the legal challenges play out, with an ultimate eye on the Supreme Court.
