Abortion pills will remain legal in Wyoming for now, after a judge ruled Thursday that the state's first-in-the-nation law to ban them won't take effect July 1 as planned while a lawsuit proceeds.
Attorneys for Wyoming failed to show that the ban wouldn't harm the plaintiffs before their lawsuit is resolved, Teton County Judge Melissa Owens ruled after hearing arguments from both sides. Meanwhile, those plaintiffs "have clearly showed probable success on the merits," Owens said.
While other states have instituted de facto bans on the medication by broadly prohibiting abortion, only Wyoming has specifically banned abortion pills. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in April that access to one of the two pills, mifepristone, may continue while litigants seek to overturn the Food and Drug Administration's approval of it.

Wyoming is at the forefront of stopping the murder of babies. Our Governor finally realized that the majority of the state is Conservative and has started working on common sense laws.
This will ultimately be approved and adopted by other states.

Typical response, using the non-uterus argument. It's a human argument, and I happen to be one. It's an elective procedure that ends a life. If it has a heartbeat, it's alive whether you or your ilk want to call it a clump of cells or not. Normalizing a procedure because there is no morality, or you want to up your body count regardless of the repercussions is on you personally. There is absolutely no reason that the taxpayer has to provide funding for your indiscretions. It's a medical facility that obviously fund itself, since it has so much extra money to donate to democrat causes and politicians so there is no reason to give extra money.
I'm not completely anti-abortion. There are times when it's NECESSARY, but it has been abused to the point that any indiscretion that results in pregnancy, which is carrying a life, needing terminated. Most states offer those services in private practices.
