Idaho Supreme Court Temporarily Blocks New Law that Bans Abortions After Six Weeks of Pregnancy

Idaho Supreme Court temporarily blocked on Friday the implementation of a recently signed Texas-style bill that outlaws abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.

Last month, Idaho Governor Brad Little (R) signed a bill that prohibits abortions after six weeks of pregnancy and is set to go into effect on April 22. The new bill was modeled after the Texas “heartbeat” abortion law.
