CASPER, Wyo. (AP) — Organizers of a planned new women’s health clinic that would offer abortions in Wyoming vow to press ahead with their plans despite a suspected arson attack, protests, harassing messages and the chance that abortion could soon become illegal in the state and several others. The fire last week heavily damaged the future clinic site in Casper. Clinic founder Julie Burkhart says the clinic organizers won’t be “bullied into submission.” The clinic would be the only one of its kind in Wyoming, a deeply conservative state among those that would outlaw most abortions if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns a 1973 ruling that legalized abortion nationwide.
