Court temporarily blocks Louisiana's abortion trigger law after providers sue

Driving the news: The Center for Reproductive Rights, which is representing the providers in the case, argues that the state's "trigger" bans are "vague" because they do not have a "clear and unambiguous effective date" and "lack adequate standing for enforceability."
