AG Nessel Statement on Court of Appeals Ruling





*LANSING* ? Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel issued the statement below following a denial of the state legislature?s appeal of a preliminary injunction in "Planned Parenthood v Attorney General of the State of Michigan "by the Court of Appeals:???

?The Court today made clear it was not persuaded by the legislature?s attempt to end access to abortion care in Michigan. I have repeatedly pledged that I will not prosecute any medical staff for providing necessary care. I refuse to turn doctors and nurses into criminals for upholding their oath and delivering the standard of care required of their professions. Michigan women deserve certainty and I fully support their right to make personal medical decisions free from government intrusion and the threat of criminal prosecution.??
