ATTORNEY GENERAL JOSH KAUL SAYS LAWSUIT CHALLENGING WISCONSIN'S ABORTION BAN COULD TAKE TIME: (Wisconsin Public Radio) – “Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul said Monday it's hard to say when the court system will resolve his lawsuit challenging the state's 1849 ban on abortion. Kaul also declined to speculate on whether the case would reach the Wisconsin Supreme Court before or after voters elect a new justice, which could swing the ideological balance of the court.” Read the full story here.

HERE'S WHY THE WISCONSIN SUPREME COURT RACE MATTERS: (Wisconsin State Journal) – “Now that the midterm election is over and split government remains the status quo at the state Capitol, all eyes have shifted to this April’s race for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, where voters will decide which ideology holds the majority on the state’s high court. One of the court’s four Republican-backed justices, Patience Roggensack, will not seek another term next year, leaving the seven-member court’s majority up for grabs. The court is expected to have the final say on a wide range of issues, from abortion to redistricting, in the next few years.” Read the full story here.

SCIENTIST SLAMS UNIVERSITY FOR IMPLANTING ABORTED BABIES’ SCALPS INTO MICE: EXPLOITING “DEATH OF AN INNOCENT CHILD”: (LifeNews.com) – “A prominent scientist criticized the University of Pittsburgh this week for ‘trafficking body parts’ from aborted babies for gristly experiments, including one in which babies’ scalps were implanted onto rodents to study the human immune system. The university has been defending its research with aborted baby body parts, pointing to a recent investigation that found it is ‘fully compliant with applicable laws.’ But Dr. David Prentice, the vice president of the Charlotte Lozier Institute and a medical researcher, said the investigation, which was commissioned by the university, was too narrow. What’s more, he said there is no need to use unethically obtained tissue from aborted babies in scientific research.” Read the full story here.

NEW NONPROFIT HELPS WISCONSINITES SECURE ABORTION CARE IN ROCKFORD, ILLINOIS: (Madison Magazine) – “On June 14, 10 days before the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and all but eliminated abortion access in Wisconsin, Dr. Dennis Christensen bought a $350,000 building in Rockford, Illinois. The writing had been on the wall long before the May 2 leak that telegraphed the court’s decision, and a consortium of local providers, activists and philanthropists — including Christensen, a mostly retired Milwaukee- and Madison-area gynecologist now in his 80s — had been quietly preparing for months.” Read the full story here.
