Arkansas Left with One Clinic for Medication Abortions as Supreme Court OKs Anti-Choice Law
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Supreme Court has declined to hear a challenge to an Arkansas law
that's among the most restrictive anti-choice measures in the country.
The law requires women's health clinics that provide medication-induced
abortions to contract with doctors who have hospital admitting
privileges. Planned Parenthood says the restriction is almost impossible
to meet, and that it will be forced to stop providing abortion
medication at its two Arkansas clinics-leaving just a single clinic in
Little Rock as the state's lone provider of medication abortions.
