Georgia judge says state can’t enforce 6-week abortion ban
The law, signed by Gov. Brian Kemp (R) in 2019, banned abortions after six weeks — the earliest that fetal cardiac electrical activity can be detected and before many people know they are pregnant. The Georgia ban took effect in 2022, after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, and has been tied up in legal proceedings for the past two years.
