Reproductive Health Agencies Sue Alabama AG Over State's 'Abortion Travel Ban'
“Attorney General Marshall’s threats require healthcare providers in Alabama to choose between their own liberty and freedom, and their ethical responsibility to fully inform pregnant patients of their healthcare options out of state. Over the last year, these threats have prevented pregnant Alabamians from accessing comprehensive information about their legal healthcare options, and the support they may depend on to access those options,” Alison Mollman, senior counsel with the ACLU of Alabama, said in a statement. “The consequences are not theoretical, they are real and can be deadly. It’s time for Attorney General Marshall’s threats to be recognized for what they are: unconstitutional and contrary to Alabama law.”
