North Carolina Abortion Case

NPR's Adam Hochberg reports that a court in North Carolina is being asked to decide if poor women have the right to abortions paid for by state funds. Recently, the state cut state funding for abortion services for poor women. Abortions rights advocates say the action violates the state constitution because state does provide funds to help poor women give birth.
