Georgia’s Supreme Court reinstated the state’s six-week abortion ban Monday, one week after a lower court struck down the ban, ruling it unconstitutional. Alice Wang from the Center for Reproductive Rights said, “This ban has already killed multiple women, as the state’s own maternal mortality review committee found last month. Yet Attorney General Carr rushed to court to reinstate this ban, ensuring more lives will be lost.”
