Planned Parenthood Stops Abortions at Seven Arizona Locations

Thanks to a comprehensive pro-life law a court recently upheld, the Planned Parenthood abortion business will be stopping abortion at seven locations throughout the state, the abortion agency announced today.

...
The law is a pro-life measure Governor Jan Brewer signed which tells women of the risks associated with and alternatives to abortion. Planned Parenthood sued the state soon after its signing and a Superior Court judge blocked the law from taking effect while the case moves forward.

The law will now go into effect and it makes it so Arizona will require a notarized parental signature before an abortion can be performed on a minor child, women will be provided with full and accurate information by a doctor in person at least 24 hours before an abortion, medical professionals cannot be forced to perform abortions if it contradicts their sincerely held religious or moral beliefs and non-doctors will not be permitted by law to perform surgical abortions.


It was a 3-0 decision from the court.

Good news for sure.

Disgusting governmental invasion of privacy. A step backwards towards treating women as chattel again.

Glad to see the Eugenics Society, oh sorry I mean Planned Parenthood, abortion clinics being shut down. Abortion should never be considered a part of "comprehensive women's health services" especially since Planned Parenthood was first called the Eugenics Society and it's mission statement was to abort blacks out of existence and thin out the herd in the gene pool to get rid of less desirable characteristics

I don't see anything here for the abortion-on-demand-up-to-delivery crowd to get excited about. The people of Arizona have spoken, the governor signed the law and it has been upheld in the courts.

Women that want to get an abortion will get one, this will make no difference except to make it harder for those with less money. FYI, most planned parenthood facilities do not perform abortions anyway, only a select few do. If you think this will actually make any difference you are kidding yourself.

Good news!

Anyone who bleats about PP being "necessary for disease testing, contraception, etc. for the poor" has never heard of Medicaid.

Away with PP, don't let the door hitcha.

I don't want abortions to occur but I can't stop them.

I definitely don't want to pay for them through government subsidies.
