A judge granted Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's request for a temporary restraining order on the enforcement of a near-total abortion ban on the books since 1931.
"I am grateful for this relief—however temporary—because it will help ensure that Michigan’s doctors, nurses, and health care systems can continue caring for their patients," Whitmer said in a statement.
In a court filing, Circuit Judge James Cunningham said their statements and a higher court's Monday ruling that county prosecutors are not bound by Judge Elizabeth Gleicher's May 15 preliminary injunction on the law, pose a "threat of immediate and irreparable injury to the people of the state of Michigan."
