An abortion provider has filed a federal civil rights complaint, saying the Washington, D.C., hospital where she works forbade her from speaking out in support of abortion rights. Dr. Diane Horvath-Cosper accused officials with the MedStar Washington Hospital Center of imposing a “gag order” against her pro-choice advocacy. Following an attack by an anti-choice extremist on a Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood, the hospital’s medical director told Dr. Horvath-Cosper he “[did] not want to put a Kmart blue-light special on the fact that we provide abortions at MedStar.”
