The Michigan Senate voted 28-10 today to approve an update to our law requiring minors to get parental consent before an abortion. Minors are allowed to get judicial waivers to avoid telling their parents but the process is being abused by minors who "judge shop" in a different county after already being denied a waiver by another judge. The process is also abused by some judges who have become "rubber stamps" for judicial waivers.
