that's why we need judges. Why are they wasting their time/money on unconstitutional bills when they have people in their state who need jobs, food, healthcare?
Judge blocks Arkansas' tough new abortion law - U.S. News
It's going to keep happening as long as people insist on wasting tax dollars on unconstitutional laws.
I guess we'll all just have to see, won't we?
Sure, there's something to see--for example, whether an appellate court reverses this judge's decision.
that's why we need judges.

How can a judge say 'it is probably unconstitutional'? Seems pretty whacky.
it seems the anti abortion crusaders seem to keep forgetting that there is a judicial branch of government
Not at all. We just hope that someday they'll do their job and honor the rule of law.
so when will the anti-abortion crowd accept the ruling of Roe V Wade?
Exactly the sort of dishonorable disgrace I was talking about. No better example of disrespect for the rule of law.
how is Roe V wade a disgrace to the rule of law? the decision was made by the supreme court, the highest court of the land, and yet that is not enough?
Sometimes, I think these politician's enact such measures, all the while knowing it will be struck down, just to get some "street cred," amongst their base and voting constituency. Yeah, it might be a waste of taxpayer dollars but just about anything else they do is also a waste of taxpayer dollars, so WTF?
As long as it gets them votes and they get to keep their job screwing the public, all's well that end's well.
She clearly said the law defines viability as something that viability is not.
They want to restrict abortion at 12 weeks gestation when the limit viability (gestation age when more than 50 percent of premies will survive ) is 24 weeks gestation and that has remain unchanged for the last 12 years.
The law can change, as it has since the beginning of man. I doubt, however, those that celebrate this will celebrate the law changing. Clearly the intent was to have the case go to the SCOTUS, which appears to be the way it is heading.
BTW, don't bother to label me on either side of this, just pointing out some simple realities about the hypocrisy of man.
Nobody is under the delusion that Roe v. Wade won't ever be revisited by the S.C. But the "simple reality" is: Roe v. Wade is still in full force. There are 7 states, which want to get the issue before the S.C. But, it's not getting there...as of yet. So they are trying to dishonestly beat the R v W decision by attacking facilities. And it will come back to bite the moral fascists and crusaders in the ass.
That one absolutist statement...."Always" will??There's nothing to see. These laws will continually be destroyed until right wing fanatics get it through their heads that women have the right to choose and always will.
