Fed. Judge Quickly Delays One WI Anti-Woman Law
This morning I wrote:
Let's hope a federal judge disagrees with Scott Walker's cold-blooded "ultrasounds are just fine" politicking, and punitive isolation of women from health services through tricks of geography, nearby hospital location and doctors' privileges and overturns as a violation of US law the right-wing misogynist, condescending and invasive Wisconsin legislating that implements it.
Right now I read this good first step:
After a hastily called hearing, a federal judge Monday put a 10-day freeze on a new state law requiring doctors who perform abortions to have hospital admitting privileges.
In a 19-page opinion issued Monday evening, U.S. District Judge William M. Conley cited a "troubling lack of justification" for the law and said he would stay enforcement of the admissions provision until July 18, a day after a more deliberate courtroom hearing scheduled for next week.
