A Wyoming judge has temporarily halted the state’s ban on abortion pills, which was scheduled to go into effect on July 1.

Judge Melissa Owens of Teton County, who was appointed by the state’s Republican Gov. Mark Gordon, ruled on Thursday that the attorneys representing Wyoming failed to demonstrate that the ban would not harm the plaintiffs before their lawsuit is resolved.
