A federal court ruled against a Missouri law on June 9 that would ban most abortions from being performed in the state.

Three judges on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit upheld a lower court’s 2019 decision to grant a preliminary injunction, making state officials unable to enforce the law.
