The Kansas Supreme Court, the state's highest court, has struck down two anti-abortion state laws, reaffirming its stance that the state constitution protects abortion access. On Friday, the court invalidated laws that regulated abortion providers more strictly than other health care professionals and banned a common second-trimester procedure. This decision underscores the court's interpretation of the state constitution as safeguarding abortion rights.
