Tennessee Abortion Allies Fight Trafficking Ban for Minors

A new Tennessee law that criminalizes a wide range of conduct intended to help pregnant minors get legal abortions in other states without their parents’ consent is unconstitutional, a group of abortion allies says.

SisterReach Inc. and (Chicago based ) Midwest Access Coalition Inc. sued Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti (R) and various district prosecuting attorneys on Thursday in the US District Court for the Western District of Tennessee, seeking to have the law declared invalid and to bar potential future prosecutions against them.
