Winning. Kentucky let's abortion ban law remain in place. 

The Kentucky Attorney General, Daniel Cameron, said in a statement that the court's decision represented a "significant victory" for the state.

• "We are very pleased that Kentucky's high court has allowed these laws to remain in effect while the case proceeds in circuit court," Cameron added.

Kentucky's trigger law — which took effect shortly after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade — makes abortions illegal in the state unless necessary to save a pregnant person's life or to "prevent the serious, permanent impairment of a life-sustaining organ" of the patient."

• The six-week ban prohibits abortion once an embryo's cardiac activity has been detected. Exceptions for abortions past that point exist only if there is a "medical emergency."

The two abortion clinics in the state, Planned Parenthood and EMW Women’s Surgical Center were forced to stop providing the procedure after the laws were enacted.
