Idaho's Abortion Trafficking Law Upheld by Federal Appeals Court
A federal appeals court upheld Idaho's law that bars adults from helping pregnant minors get abortions in other states without parental consent. The law was challenged for restricting freedom of speech and right to travel. The court largely upheld the law but found the portion prohibiting 'recruiting' minors for abortions unconstitutional. Idaho Attorney General celebrated the ruling as a victory for protecting life. The case will proceed with modifications to the preliminary injunction.
