DESCRIPTION

Attorney General Josh Kaul argued against a motion to dismiss his challenge to the state’s century-old abortion law on Thursday. Kaul is suing the district attorneys in Sheboygan, Dane and Milwaukee counties – the only places where abortions in the state used to be performed – to block the enforcement of Wisconsin’s 1849 law that bans abortions in every case except to save a mother’s life.
