US EditionPlanned Parenthood Sues to Block Parental Notification of Abortion in Nevada
NEVADA, JUL 22 – Planned Parenthood Mar Monte challenges Nevada's 40-year-old law requiring parental notification for minors' abortions, citing risks of delays and constitutional concerns, while 36 states have similar laws.
- On Tuesday, the law took effect statewide, and Planned Parenthood Mar Monte filed suit Monday in Clark County District Court to block Nevada’s parental notification law .
- Following the 2022 Dobbs decision, Lyon and Carson City district attorneys argued SB510 is enforceable, leading to Nevada law's enforcement earlier this year, U.S. District Court Judge Traum ruled.
- As written, SB510 requires physicians to notify parents or guardians before performing abortions on minors, and the judicial bypass process can delay or deny access to care, impacting vulnerable minors.
- Anti-abortion advocates celebrated, with Melissa Clement calling enforcement a `historic victory for Nevada families`, while James Bopp Jr. labeled Planned Parenthood’s objections `phony objections`.
- According to KFF, parental involvement is required in 36 states, and other states may follow Nevada’s lead, threatening Planned Parenthood’s resources.
