Federal Judge Temporarily Blocks Arkansas Abortion Restrictions

Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson speaks at a National Governors Association meeting last year. A federal judge late Tuesday temporarily blocked abortion restrictions signed into law by Hutchinson in March.

The restrictions would have required physicians performing abortions to be board certified and prevented abortions after 18 weeks or for the sole reason that the fetus has Down syndrome.
