Missouri Right to Life Celebrates Decision by Judge to Dismiss Planned Parenthood Case

On Tuesday, August 13th Judge Brian Wimes dismissed without prejudice a long court battle against our Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services Director Randall Williams.

This long battle concerns whether the Department of Health and Senior Services has the right to have abortion clinics certified as ambulatory surgical centers and have the same standard of health care as other medical facilities and whether physicians performing abortions would have hospital privileges within 30 miles of abortion clinics.

These regulations were and still are common sense medical safety standards. Annual inspections since this lawsuit have shown that oversight over Missouri abortion clinics are needed for the protection and safety of Missouri women and their unborn children.

Keep praying for “right to life” to prevail. There are still many court cases to fight to protect Missouri women and their unborn children!
