Progress for abortion rights
Karen Ann Gajewski
More progress for abortion rights was achieved in June when the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit struck down Michigan’s third attempt to enact a dangerous and extreme law that would have prohibited nearly all abortions. And in July New Hampshire Governor John Lynch signed a bill repealing a 2003 law that prevented doctors from performing an abortion for a teen under the age of eighteen until forty-eight hours after a parent had been notified.
