Lone Miss. abortion clinic fights limiting law

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi’s only abortion clinic sued Wednesday to stop a law that it says will effectively ban abortion in the state and endanger women’s health by limiting access to the procedure.

Jackson Women’s Health Organization said in the federal lawsuit that the measure would close the clinic, is unconstitutional and would ban abortion in Mississippi “by imposing medically unjustified requirements on physicians who perform abortions.”
