“Any person who knowingly performs or induces an abortion of an unborn child in violation of this subsection shall be guilty of a class B felony, as well as subject to suspension or revocation of his or her professional license,” Missouri’s abortion law reads.

Hundreds of Missouri doctors signed a letter asking voters to overturn the state’s abortion ban. This comes less than two months from when Missourians decide whether to do just that. Missourians will vote on Amendment 3 in November.
