Mary Poe, a pregnant woman in Kentucky, has filed a lawsuit seeking to challenge the state's near-total abortion ban, claiming violations of her constitutional rights to privacy and self-determination. The lawsuit targets the state's abortion laws, which were enacted following the reversal of Roe v. Wade. It aims to secure the right for all pregnant individuals in Kentucky to access abortion care. Additionally, Poe's legal team from the ACLU argues that these bans impose significant personal and health burdens, forcing individuals to seek care elsewhere or continue unwanted pregnancies, often with serious risks.
