Abortion providers are asking the Idaho Supreme Court to strike down the state's new six-week abortion ban which mimics a controversial Texas law
The providers said in a lawsuit filed Wednesday that the Idaho law violates several provisions of the state constitution. They're asking the state Supreme Court to intervene before April 22, when the law goes into effect.
" The new lawsuit alleges that the six-week ban violates the Idaho Constitution's separation of powers doctrine, its prohibition against"special" laws, its right to privacy provisions, its due process guarantees and its equal protection clause. The challengers pointed to assessments by the Idaho attorney general's office and by the state's Republican Gov. Brad Little, who suggested that the law was likely to be found unconstitutional.

The Arizona measure, passed by the Republican-led legislature last week, states that physicians can provide abortions after 15 weeks only in cases of medical emergency. 'In Arizona, we know there is immeasurable value in every life – including preborn life,' the governor wrote in a letter on Wednesday.
