An editorial, sending their AG off to SCOTUS:
It is a sensible law, which simply mandates that one parent of a minor girl who seeks an abortion be notified before the abortion can be performed. That’s it. The parent does not have to consent. And the girl can take her case to a judge if she has good reason — including her health — to have the notification requirement waived.
But the pro-abortion lobby will have no restrictions or qualifications, even simple ones such as parental notification, placed on this procedure. And so Ayotte is in Washington tomorrow to defend the law against zealots who, thanks to a history of judicial activism on this subject, stand a decent shot at winning.
