The Trump administration has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to allow a Louisiana law that requires abortionists to obtain hospital admitting privileges near where the procedure was taking place.
U.S. Solicitor General Noel Francisco urged the top court to back the state abortion law in an amicus brief (pdf) in the case set for argument on March 4. In the brief, Francisco argued that the law, Act 620, does not impose an undue burden on women trying to obtain an abortion.
