No judge, justice, or lawyer should be creating policy for Wisconsinites out of thin air \u2013 yet that\u2019s what is happening now. Wisconsin\u2019s Supreme Court is making a historic mistake by even considering an original action in this case.\u201d\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><b>Additional Background:<\/b> Earlier this year, Planned Parenthood asked the Supreme Court of Wisconsin (SCoW) to create a constitutional right to an abortion in Wisconsin. WILL believes ruling in favor of Planned Parenthood would embroil SCoW in the same mess of policy questions that <i>Roe v. Wade <\/i>created. We believe addressing this litany of questions should be reserved to the legislative process and a transparent debate from the state\u2019s elected policy makers.\u00a0\u00a0WILL represents a coalition of pro-life groups in this case and plans to file an Amicus ahead of oral arguments later this year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_4 et_pb_column_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_team_member et_pb_team_member_0 clearfix  et_pb_text_align_center et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_team_member_image et-waypoint et_pb_animation_off\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"617\" height=\"980\" src=\"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/WILL_Luke_Color_001_WEB_980x617_100ppi_Sharpened.jpg\" alt=\"Luke Berg\" class=\"wp-image-9283\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_team_member_description\">\n<h4 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Luke Berg<\/h4>\n<p class=\"et_pb_member_position\">Deputy Counsel<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Luke@will-law.org<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/will-law.org\/will-statement-on-recent-scowis-decision-to-consider-original-action-in-planned-parenthood-abortion-case\/\">WILL Statement on Recent SCOWIS Decision to Consider Original Action in Planned Parenthood Abortion Case<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/will-law.org\">Wisconsin Institute for Law &amp; Liberty<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post originally appeared at https:\/\/will-law.org\/will-statement-on-recent-scowis-decision-to-consider-original-action-in-planned-parenthood-abortion-case\/ The News: The Wisconsin Institute for Law &amp; Liberty&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":123,"featured_media":262,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-will"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11441","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/123"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11441"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11441\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11443,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11441\/revisions\/11443"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/262"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11441"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11441"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11441"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
