A judge will hear arguments Wednesday over whether abortions will be allowed in Wyoming while a sweeping new ban gets challenged in her court
signed by Republican Gov. Mark Gordon on Friday, but it is not set to take effect until July 1.
In July, Owens found that their concerns that the law would harm women and doctors and violate the state constitution could have merit. State lawmakers then wrote their new law to try to override those objections. The new sweeping ban asserts that abortion is not health care and the amendment therefore doesn’t apply to abortion.
Wyoming has only one abortion provider, a women’s health clinic in Jackson that only provides medication abortions but has been forced to stop after the state’s broad ban took effect this week.
