Kentucky court grants injunction against abortion clinic

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Reuters) - A Kentucky appeals court on Wednesday granted Republican Governor Matt Bevin a temporary injunction against a Lexington abortion clinic his administration said was not properly licensed.

In a 3-0 ruling, the Kentucky Court of Appeals overturned a March decision from a lower court judge that denied the governor an injunction against EMW Women's Clinic.

In Wednesday's order, the judges said the state's Cabinet for Health and Family Services had the right to regulate how abortions were performed and how clinics were licensed.

Bevin said in a statement: "Today marks an important victory for the rule of law in Kentucky. We are pleased by the Court's recognition that an unlicensed abortion clinic is prohibited from performing abortions."

2. I feel sorry for the good people of Kentucky. Not so much for the ones that voted this Republican

Let's make America backwards again.

4. Thanks

Many of us dems here in Kentucky are disappointed in the election. It is hard to fathom but Owsley County, one of the poorest counties in the country, voted 70-30 for this failed businessman. Thus voting away their health care. It's mind-boggling cognitive dissonance. They voted for the oldest trick in the book. God, Guns and gays.
You might add rooster fighting as Bevin appear at one of the many illegal fights held throughout the state. Sickening.

6. He mainly got in by promising to rid the state of that evil Obamacare

Fortunately for him the majority of the state is filled with bigoted, racist morons.

Unfortunately for Kentucky, Obamacare is ACA.
