MADISON, Wis. — A federal judge has struck down a Wisconsin law requiring abortion providers to get hospital admitting privileges.

U.S. District Judge William Conley ruled Friday that the 2013 law is unconstitutional.

Planned Parenthood and Affiliated Medical Services had sued the state, arguing the requirement will force AMS's Milwaukee clinic to close because its doctors can't get admitting privileges.......

I know not scientific at all--but I will take it


Do you agree with the decision by a federal judge to strike down a Wisconsin law requiring doctors performing abortions to get hospital admitting privileges?

The judge ruled that any benefits to women's health from the requirement are "substantially outweighed" by restricting women's access to abortion.
Yes. (68%)
No. (32%)
