A huge win for reproductive rights! We applaud Judge Sima Patel for overturning Michigan’s 24-hour abortion waiting period — a medically unnecessary delay that only served to burden patients and stigmatize care. This ruling reaffirms what Michigan voters made clear in 2022 when they passed a constitutional amendment protecting reproductive freedom: the state cannot impose politically motivated barriers to abortion care. Judge Patel also struck down outdated and coercive mandates, including the required distribution of fetal development charts and physician-only rules that limited access to care. This is what progress looks like — and it happened because advocates, medical professionals, and voters fought to put fundamental freedoms into law. Join us in celebrating this powerful step forward for reproductive justice. Add your name to thank Judge Patel, Northland Family Planning Centers, Medical Students for Choice, and every Michigander who stood up for the right to make personal decisions without government interference. Add your name to celebrate Michigan’s victory for reproductive freedom!
