Kansas Supreme Court upholds abortion rights, rejecting a state ban on common second-trimester procedure.
Kansas Supreme Court upholds abortion rights, rejecting a state law that banned a common second-trimester abortion procedure. In a 5-1 ruling, the court highlights that the ban violated the state constitution's right to abortion as recognized in a 2019 decision, maintaining a lower court order blocking the law since 2015. This decision affirms that Kansas constitution protects abortion access, striking down a ban on a common second-trimester procedure and laws regulating abortion providers more strictly than other health care providers.
