Missouri Abortion Law Ruled Legal

According to The Kansas City Star, “The Missouri Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld the constitutionality of a state law that lets parents sue anyone who helps their minor daughters get abortions.” “The law, enacted in 2005, allows legal damages against anyone who would ‘cause, aid or assist’ a girl under 18 in getting an abortion without consent of a parent or a court.”
