Mississippi's only abortion clinic misses deadline

JACKSON, MS (Mississippi News Now) -

Mississippi's only abortion clinic missed a deadline Friday to comply with a state law requiring each of its physicians to get hospital admitting privileges.

Diane Derzis, administrator of the Jackson Women's Health Organization, said every Jackson-area hospital where the clinic applied for privileges said it doesn't want to deal with the pressure of being associated with abortion providers.

As the deadline passes, the Mississippi Department of Health won't immediately close the clinic, but will pay an unannounced visit to the clinic within the next few days. If the clinic is found to be non-compliant, the health department will send them a notice of intent to revoke their license.

Pro-Choice advocates last year succeeded in getting a restraining order to put the new law on hold until now.

We talked to Julie Rikelman, Litigation Director for the Center for Reproductive Rights, in June.

"A number of the politicians who have supported this law have been very clear that the purpose of it was to make Mississippi abortion-free," Rikelman said.

Well, they are just going to have to move their operations to Californicate. They passed a law there recently that just about allows anyone with a little manual dexterity and a coat hanger to perform abortions. I fully expect ads to appear offering a free oil change and tire balance and rotation with every abortion performed in their “full service bays”.
