One abortion clinic in Central Florida is in danger of closing.
Heard on local news today, WESH, I think. From what I heard, the clinic was in legal trouble because they were accused of performing abortions without the 24 hour waiting period. They had filed a lawsuit to contest the law, which, presumably gave them a reprieve. But they racked up about 193,000 in penalty fees for the 193 abortions that were performed in a two week period that were not in compliance. I don't really understand the legal timeline for this, but the bottom line is that they don't have the $193,000 and will have to close their doors.
