Supreme Court Reverses Block On Federal Abortion Funds Use
The Supreme Court reversed a federal judge blocking the Hyde Amendment style ban on federal funds for elective abortions. The ruling sends the case back to Judge John Dooling of Brooklyn to act per the high court precedents, with funds continuing to flow pending final disposition. The suit, led by Cora McRae and Planned Parenthood, argues the Hyde measure is more restrictive than state rules.
