(Headline USA) A federal appeals court ruled Friday that Tennessee can begin outlawing abortions because of a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome, as well as prohibit the procedure if it’s based on the race or sex of the fetus.
Tennessee Republican Gov. Bill Lee enacted the so-called “reason bans” earlier this year as part of a sweeping anti-abortion measure.
The law gained national attention because it banned abortion as early as six weeks — making it one of the strictest in the country — but it included several other anti-abortion components.
The law was immediately blocked by a lower federal court just hours after Lee signed it into law.
However, the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision will allow the state to enforce the reason bans while abortion rights groups continue their court battle against that law.
The plaintiffs, which include Tennessee abortion providers being represented by reproductive rights groups, had argued the ban was improperly vague, but the court disagreed. read more
They banned sex? Oh I don’t think so. Somewhere people are bumping uglies.
Alleluia!
Oh, Thank God!
This is the camel’s nose under the tent. If the left uses that tactic to ban our rights, then we need to use the same to protect the precious innocent.
Keep it up!
Forcing white women to come to term with their black babies could be a nice crack between feminists and BLM. I don’t really care which side prevails as long as they are at one another’s throats.
