Michigan Passes Country's Most Far-Reaching New Anti-Choice Law
Near-Total Ban on Abortion Presents Direct Challenge to Roe v. Wade
Governor Jennifer Granholm vetoed the legislation last year, but anti-choice activists revived the proposal and brought it to final passage through a rarely-used initiative procedure. The law is likely to be the subject of legal challenges, and could well end up before the Supreme Court. Because it affects even first-trimester abortions and contains inadequate protection for women’s health, it could only be upheld by overturning Roe v. Wade.
