Lawsuits filed against Idaho and Utah over abortion and capital punishment.

The ACLU and Planned Parenthood are separately suing Idaho Attorney General Raúl Labrador over his interpretation of state law that would punish medical professionals who refer patients out-of-state for abortion services. Labrador issued a legal opinion last week that said state law prohibits medical providers from referring a patient across state lines to undergo an abortion, or from prescribing abortion pills for a patient to pick up across state lines. The lawsuit comes after Idaho's governor signed into law a bill that makes it a crime for an adult to aid a minor in undergoing an abortion or obtaining abortion pills out-of-state without parental permission.
