Georgia Supreme Court Reinstates 6-Week Abortion Ban
----------------------------------------------------

Georgia's Supreme Court reinstated the state's six-week abortion ban
Monday, one week after a lower court struck down the ban, ruling it
unconstitutional. Alice Wang from the Center for Reproductive Rights
said, "This ban has already killed multiple women, as the state's own
maternal mortality review committee found last month. Yet Attorney
General Carr rushed to court to reinstate this ban, ensuring more lives
will be lost."
