TL;DR Summary

A South Carolina judge has temporarily blocked a new law restricting abortion access after six weeks of pregnancy, just one day after Gov. Henry McMaster signed the six-week ban into law. The order temporarily restores abortion access in the state to up to 22 weeks of pregnancy. The case now heads to the State Supreme Court, and South Carolina has become an important access point for abortion in the South as other states in the region have banned the procedure.
