CNN: Federal Judge Blocks Mississippi Abortion Law

‘This federal judge has blocked for now Mississippi’s law that bans abortion when a fetal heartbeat is detected’

EXCERPT:

DE VOGUE: "Right, this federal judge, he has blocked for now Mississippi’s law that bans abortion when a fetal heartbeat is detected, that’s as early as six weeks, at times. This is judge Carlton Reeves. He wrote in his opinion that this law 'threatens immediate harm to women’s right, especially considering most women do not seek abortion services until after six weeks.' Jake, this law is a part of this new wave of laws that are being introduced by Republican-led states across the country. They feel emboldened by President Trump, who just last weekend, tweeted that he was strongly pro-life. This judge ruled very quickly, you only heard arguments in this earlier in the week."
