Michigan voters waiting to hear if they'll get their say on abortion rights get a little good news

The 1931 Michigan law banning abortion is unconstitutional, Court of Claims Judge Elizabeth Gleicher ruled Wednesday. That makes a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the 1931 law permanent, though Gleicher’s decision could be appealed to higher state courts, and the fate of an amendment protecting abortion rights is currently in the hands of the state Supreme Court.

Banning abortion, Gleicher ruled, would not only violate the due process right to “bodily integrity,” but, Washtenaw County Prosecuting Attorney Eli Savit explained in an important Twitter thread, would violate the Michigan constitution’s equal protection clause as well.
