Judge blocks rules that had forced closure of abortion clinics in Missouri

April 20, 2017 By Missourinet Contributor

A federal judge followed through on a promise yesterday by issuing an injunction blocking requirements imposed by lawmakers for Missouri abortion clinics to meet standards for surgical centers and for their doctors to have hospital  admitting privileges.

Planned Parenthood says the move will allow it restore abortion services in Columbia and Kansas City and begin performing them in Joplin and Springfield.

Republican State Attorney General Josh Hawley, who’d praised the restrictions, vowed to appeal the ruling.
