Pro-life pastor wins challenge against California ‘bubble zone’

‘Unconstitutional’: pro-life pastor wins challenge against California ‘bubble zone’ | LifeSiteNews.com: A constitutional challenge against the City of Oakland’s 2008 ‘bubble’ ordinance, which prohibits pro-life sidewalk counselors outside abortion facilities from standing within 8 feet of women seeking abortions, has resulted in a ruling that the city’s law is unconstitutional. Pro-life witness Rev. Walter Hoye brought the constitutional challenge forward. On July 28, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said the city erred when it was disclosed that the enforcement of the bubble ordinance only applied to those who tried to dissuade women from abortion and not to those who encouraged them.
