Abortions slowed in Ariz., Texas

Posted on Aug 26, 2011 | by Staff

WASHINGTON (BP)--Planned Parenthood clinics in three Arizona cities no longer will provide abortions.

Meanwhile in Texas, the state's medical board has scheduled disciplinary hearings for four abortionists targeted in an undercover sting operation.

The Arizona affiliate of the country's leading abortion provider announced Aug. 18 that its clinics in Flagstaff, Prescott Valley and Yuma would immediately stop offering abortions by means of the drug RU 486, the Associated Press reported. The clinics did not perform surgical abortions.

Planned Parenthood clinics in the Phoenix and Tucson areas will still provide surgical and RU 486 abortions, according to the AP.

The clinic closings followed by a week a court opinion upholding a 2009 state law that places limitations on abortion services. The Abortion Consent Act mandates only doctors perform abortions; requires women to receive full information 24 hours beforehand on abortion, its risks, fetal development and alternatives to the procedure; mandates parental consent for minors; and protects freedom of conscience for pro-life, health-care workers.

The Arizona Court of Appeals ruled unanimously that the law is constitutional.

"If Planned Parenthood truly cared about what's best for women, they wouldn't be repeatedly going to court around the nation to stop laws that allow women to make fully informed choices," said Steven Aden, senior counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, which helped defend the law before the appeals court.

"The court ruled rightly in this case in rejecting the arguments of the nation's largest purveyor of abortion," Aden said. "The protection of women is not unconstitutional."

In Texas, the five doctors scheduled for Texas Medical Board disciplinary hearings join five others for whom hearings also have been announced, according to World News Service.
