"Unconstitutional"
So said District Judge Brian Dixon today in a ruling on Oklahoma's ultrasound law. The law never went in to effect, and now never will, said representatives of the Oklahoma Coalition for Reproductive Justice, which was a party in the court challenge brought by the NY based Center for Reproductive Rights.
This is a victory for Oklahoma women, certainly for OCRJ and its supporters, but they can't celebrate long, because yesterday the Personhood Bill passed through the House Public Health Committee and its next stop is the House floor (it already passed the Senate).
