Kansas receives failing EF grade for reproductive health rights
The Population Institute places Kansas among 19 states with an EF in reproductive health and rights citing no sex education laws, no emergency contraception protections, limited Medicare expansion, and strict abortion rules. Court of Appeals split on dismemberment abortion, with seven judges for a ban and seven against. 74 percent of Kansas women live counties without abortion providers. Gov Brownback defends abortion restrictions, Planned Parenthood opposition calls the grade indicative of an unfriendly climate for women.
