How Kansas Banned Abortion
Update: Late Friday afternoon, a federal judge blocked enforcement of Kansas's new regulations of abortion clinics, allowing all clinics to remain open until the case is resolved.
In April, the Idaho Legislature passed a bill with a strange provision attached: It provided money to defend the law in court. The fetal-pain law, which prohibited abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy with no exception for rape or incest, was blatantly illegal, and the legislature knew it would be challenged. The point of the bill was to pick a fight.
Since January, newly elected Republican majorities across the country have enacted 49 laws meant to chip away at abortion rights. But the strategy that's worked best is not Idaho's, where the ban affects a small number of abortions and is likely to be struck down in court. Instead, access to abortion is at greater risk in states that use regulations to squeeze clinics out of business. Known as "TRAP" (Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers) laws, such legislation is aimed at stopping abortion with a thousand regulatory paper cuts. Nowhere have TRAP laws been more successful than in Kansas. Starting today, anti-abortion lawmakers have succeeded in shutting down two abortion clinics, leaving only one open in the entire state.
In a 36-page set of rules drawn up on June 17, Kansas mandated, among other requirements, that procedure rooms be at least 150 square feet in size; that there be 50 square feet of janitorial storage space per procedure room; and that toilet rooms be adjacent to recovery rooms. Forty-four states have some form of TRAP laws on their books. But as Center for Reproductive Rights president Nancy Northrup put it, "Kansas is a whole new level of absurdity."
What makes these laws so insidious, Northrup says, is that they fly under the radar by posing as health and safety regulations. In reality, they have nothing to do with health or safety, and everything to do with making it impossible to provide reproductive services. As former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention official David Grimes told Mother Jones , "Having published on every hemorrhaged abortion death in the United States, I can assure you that not a single one was caused by a door width."
Under Kansas's new law, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment created a set of regulations and issued licenses only to clinics that met them.
