 Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat, has been subpoenaed to testify in the lawsuit she brought to permanently enjoin enforcement of the state’s strict abortion trigger law.

The statute was passed in 1931 and was the law of the state until rendered moot by the U.S. Supreme Court in its 1973 Roe v. Wade decision.
