A case that could decide the future of Wyoming abortion rights continues to chug along in Teton County courts.

A judge decided today that anti-abortion elected officials, including the secretary of state, and advocates will not be able to intervene and have a say in the case.

According to the CDC, Wyoming offers some of the lowest number of abortions in the US. Now it’ll be even more difficult to get one, as it joins 13 conservative states in enacting a near-total ban on pregnancy-ending care. From @HannaMerzbach via @891KHOL

"By enacting an outright ban on transgender individuals participating in team sports I believe Wyoming sends a harmful message that these individuals and their families do not deserve the same opportunities as others," Gordon writes.
