Reactions to KY abortion ruling: Conservatives celebrate, Democrats vow to keep fighting.

Many Kentucky Republicans have claimed victory in this round of the legal battle over abortion in Kentucky.

Attorney General Daniel Cameron, whose office has defended the law against a suit brought forward by multiple parties, cheered the ruling.

“Since the U.S. Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade last June, we have vigorously defended Kentucky’s Human Life Protection Act and Heartbeat Law. We are very pleased that Kentucky’s high court has allowed these laws to remain in effect while the case proceeds in circuit court,” his office said in a statement. “This is a significant victory, and we will continue to stand up for the unborn by defending these laws.”

Cameron, who is running for the Republican nomination for governor this year, has made his ant-abortion stance a key part of his gubernatorial platform.
