Quote of the Day
[Content Note: Fight against agency.]"Closing its doorways would—as the condition appears to concede within this argument—force Mississippi women to depart Mississippi to acquire a legal abortion... [This] would create a patchwork system where constitutional privileges can be found in some states although not others."—US District Judge Daniel P. Jordan III, in the opinion after stretching a brief injunction which prevents Mississippi from closing the Jackson Women's Health Organization, the final abortion clinic within the condition, "because it attempts to enter into compliance having a 2012 law needing all doctors who perform abortions in the clinic to possess acknowledging rights at local hospitals. The injunction was extended before the constitutionality from the law can be established inside a current pending suit from the condition. To date, no hospital within 30 miles from the clinic grants acknowledging rights to the doctors."It's a temporary reprieve, but an important ruling.
