Idaho's New Abortion Law: What to Know

This law was a disturbing violation of medical providers' first amendment right to freedom of speech and a ridiculous attempt at extending Idaho law beyond the state's borders. It never should have been permitted to begin with. This ruling sends a clear message to lawmakers in Idaho and across the country that this sort of unconstitutional overreach is unacceptable.
Labrador's opinion was never meant to become law enforcement guidance, being promptly withdrawn after it was wrongfully made public. This preliminary injunction is extremely disappointing and nonsensical, as the Bill Clinton-appointed Judge Winmill is seeking to restrain a power that the AG's office doesn't have.
