Supreme Court rejects ACLU challenge to Kentucky ultrasound law
The United States Supreme Court rejected a lawsuit Monday that challenged Kentucky’s requirement that women considering abortion be offered ultrasound images, without comment. The pro-life law will remain in effect.
It is standard procedure to conduct an ultrasound before committing an abortion anyway, to ensure that it is not an ectopic pregnancy and to confirm how developed the baby is. Some abortions are even ultrasound-guided.
