Critics say Kansas abortion law flawed in form and substance
Two Kansas doctors Dr. Herbert Hodes and Dr. Traci Nauser, who perform abortions in Overland Park, filed a Shawnee County suit arguing the law has multiple subjects beyond its single bill. They seek to strike down the law before trial, urging the court to rule on the constitution's one subject requirement. The filing notes provisions on sex selection bans, tax-blocks for providers, and school sexuality materials, plus a section aimed at families of children with Down syndrome. District Judge Rebecca Crotty allowed most of the law to take effect.
