Michigan is looking to ban abortions. It may rest on the gubernatorial election

NPR  

Michigan is looking to ban abortions. It may rest on the gubernatorial election Abortion is still legal in Michigan but it's the subject of litigation. That's because earlier this year, Governor Whitmer used this special executive power that governors in Michigan have. She asked the Michigan Supreme Court to rule without an actual case before them on the constitutionality of that 1931 law that you mentioned. And just last month, a court of claims judge issued a preliminary injunction, which means right now, until the Michigan Supreme Court rules, abortion is still legal in Michigan.
