Mississippi May Be First U.S. State With No Abortion Clinic

Mississippi May Be First U.S. State With No Abortion Clinic - Businessweek: Abortion will still be legal in Mississippi next month. It’s just that women who live there probably won’t be able to get one.

Beginning July 1, all abortion-clinic physicians must have admitting privileges at a local hospital under a law passed in April. At the Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the state’s sole remaining clinic providing elective abortions, none of the three physicians who perform the procedure has been granted those privileges.

Mississippi may become the first U.S. state without a dedicated abortion clinic if the Jackson facility fails to come into compliance.
