(JUST THE NEWS) – Wednesday marked the repeal of parental notification of underage abortion in Illinois, and each side of the argument is making their position known.
The 1995 parental notification law didn’t go into effect until 2013 after years of litigation. The law allowed for a judicial bypass of the notification requirement.
Last year, the Democratic supermajority at the Illinois statehouse passed a measure to repeal parental notification. Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed the repeal in December. The repeal took effect June 1, 2022.
