Abortion
rights groups welcomed the Supreme Court’s action. “This misguided law
would have inserted politics and bad medicine into every exam room in
North Carolina,” Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood
Federation of America, said in a statement. A
spokeswoman for Mr. Cooper declined to comment. Tami Fitzgerald, the
executive director of the North Carolina Values Coalition, said in a
statement that the law was modest and valuable. “In any other medical
procedure,” she said, “doctors would have a duty to disclose all of the
relevant information.” The Supreme Court is expected to act soon in cases concerning more sweeping challenges to abortion regulations in cases from Mississippi and Texas.
