Abortion rights advocates win in Arizona, Ohio with new rulings
Restrictive abortion laws were temporarily struck down Friday in Ohio and Arizona, two states where abortion services have been in flux in the wake of Roe v. Wade being overturned.
In Ohio, a six-week abortion ban is indefinitely blocked while a state constitutional challenge brought by the ACLU of Ohio on behalf of abortion providers in the state proceeds.
Last month, Hamilton County Judge Christian Jenkins granted a 14-day restraining order against the law, which prohibits most abortions after the "fetal heartbeat" is detected, before granting the ACLU of Ohio's request for a preliminary injunction on Friday.
The latest ruling means abortion up until 22 weeks will be legal in the state for the duration of the case.
