“The trial that may make Kentucky the first state in the United States without an abortion clinic began Wednesday in federal court, as advocates sought to keep the state from shutting down the Louisville-based EMW Women’s Surgical Center.
Earlier this year, Kentucky’s Cabinet for Health and Family Services sent the clinic a letter informing the clinic that it was out of compliance with state regulations that require clinics to have standing agreements with local hospitals and ambulance services to transfer patients in case of medical emergencies. While the clinic technically had such agreements, the cabinet — led by Kentucky’s Republican Gov. Matt Bevin — had found them “deficient.”
That letter showed up “totally out of the blue,” Brigitte Amiri, an attorney with the American Civil Liberty Union’s Reproductive Freedom Project, told VICE News at the time. Yet without the state’s approval of those agreements, EMW would be forced to close.”
