Update on Continuing Court Challenges to SB 5
This week the Missouri Supreme Court ruled against Planned Parenthood's challenge to the same physician requirement in the 72 hour reflection period by denying their request for a Writ of Prohibition.
In this decision the court upheld that the physician who is to perform the abortion must meet in person with a woman 72 hour prior to performing an abortion on her. This is not an undue burden.
These repeated challenges to common sense medical practices by Planned Parenthood show the lack of concern for the well being of women when they are facing a crisis situation.
We thank Attorney General Josh Hawley and his staff for continuing to fight to protect women and their unborn children.
