Kansas Attorney General seeks women’s private medical records

Looks like Kansas is taking cues from former Attorney General John Ashcroft. Kansas AG Phill Kline is seeking the medical records of almost 90 women who received abortions. WHAT?!

Kline apparently is looking for evidence of a crime under late-term abortion laws. The records he’s looking to get would include every patient’s name, medical history, details of her sex life, birth control practices and psychological profile. This is a disgusting violation of privacy rights, not to mention a frightening example of what could happen in any state. 

Some other bad news: Yesterday’s vote in Georgia on waiting periods didn’t go so well.

But don’t get down, these are just more reasons to keep fighting!
