Kansas health officials push abortion rule work amid federal challenge
Kansas health officials press ahead Tuesday with rules for abortion providers detailing stocked drugs and equipment and minimum room sizes and temperatures. A federal lawsuit by two abortion clinics and doctors blocks enforcement, risking expiration if hearings and changes are not completed. The department plans a Topeka hearing and will consider comments, while a companion licensing law remains on hold. Defendants include Drs. Herbert Hodes and Traci Nauser of Overland Park and Dr. Ronald Yeomans of Aid for Women in Kansas City.
