Democrats Rush Decision on WI Abortion Ban
On Monday, Attorney General Josh Kaul (D) filed a motion to speed up a decision in his challenge against Wisconsin's pre-Roe abortion ban. The case, which is now before Dane County Circuit Judge Diane Schlipper, is expected to reach the state's high court.
Kaul's latest motion asks Schlipper to declare, without further oral arguments, that the law is unenforceable as applied to abortion. Earlier, Schlipper ruled the law applied to what she called “feticide,” not abortion, and determined the case should continue and not be dismissed as defendants had asked.
