Judge Strikes Most of Maryland Law Attacking Pregnancy Centers | LifeNews.com: A federal judge struck down most of a law Montgomery County, Maryland officials passed that targets pregnancy centers and requires them to post signs that may turn potential clients away. The decision follows on the heels of another one where a another federal judge struck down a Baltimore law.
The court issued an order preventing the county from enforcing the requirement that pregnancy centers must post signage noting that the county believes women should seek assistance elsewhere. The court will also consider additional arguments before ruling on a part of the law that requires the centers to post that a medical professional is not on staff. The county intentionally crafted the law so that it doesn’t apply to abortion centers, such as Planned Parenthood.
