Westchester, New York, scrambles to update abortion clinic law: 'Afraid of the Supreme Court' by Jeremiah Poff, Education Reporter

A New York county is reconsidering a law that establishes a 100-foot buffer zone outside abortion clinics just as the U.S. Supreme Court is poised to decide whether to hear a case challenging its constitutionality.

On Tuesday, the Westchester County Board of Legislators will hold a public meeting to decide whether or not to amend the "Clinic Access Law," which was passed last year and establishes a 100-foot buffer zone around abortion clinics and prohibits protesters and sidewalk counselors from being within 8 feet of someone in the buffer zone.

The planned amendment would not completely repeal the law but would amend it so as to remove the 8-feet provision. According to board documents, the legislators are seeking to repeal the provision because it is "difficult to enforce" and is not necessary to ensure access to abortion clinics. MORE AT Supreme Court news: Westchester, NY scrambles to update abortion clinic law | Washington Examiner
