In Reverse Religious Challenge to Missouri Abortion Law, Satanist Challenges Mandatory Waiting Period
A pregnant Missouri woman seeking an abortion is fighting the mandatory three-day waiting period imposed by that state’s Republican-dominated legislature. Her argument uses one of the right wing’s favorite claims—the violation of her sincerely held religious beliefs. “The potential is for this case to be a lot broader than Missouri,” said Doe’s attorney. “Many states have 24-hour waiting periods and five states have 72-hour waiting periods. I can envision similar suits being brought elsewhere.”
