Women's Rights win in court!


On Thursday, a US district judge in the state ruled that HB 1297, which bans medication abortion, is unconstitutional. Judge Wickham Corwin wrote that North Dakota’s excuse that the bill is meant to keep women safe is “exaggerated and contrived” and is clearly designed to “stand in the way of women’s health,” and women’s constitutional right to have an abortion in the way her and her doctor deem best.
Medical science has proven that abortions via medication are safe for women. According to a study published in December 2012 in Obstetrics and Gynecology and reported on by Reuters, only one percent of women out of 233,305 treated had complications after taking medication to end their pregnancies.
