Oklahoma Court Says Abortion Laws Unconstitutional

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- The Oklahoma Supreme Court says two anti-abortion laws recently passed by the Legislature are "facially unconstitutional" and that lower court judges were right to prevent their enforcement. One law would have required that women seeking an abortion be given an ultrasound image while listening to a description of the fetus. The other restricted the off-label use of certain abortion-inducing drugs. The laws had received bipartisan support in the Legislature but were challenged by the New York-based Center for Reproductive Rights. Oklahoma County judges prohibited their enforcement pending a resolution of the court case. The state's highest court handed down rulings in separate decisions Tuesday. The ultrasound bill was approved in 2010 and the drug-related case passed the Legislature in 2011.Oklahoma Court Says Abortion Laws Unconstitutional

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Graduating high schoolers say they don't want to move away from Moore after a tornado devastated a section of their town.

Westmoore High School Senior Alex Davis says staying close is a way to show "that a disaster can't beat us."

And senior Cameron Knight says if he had a choice to live anywhere in the country, he'd still pick his hometown.

Westmoore was the first of three schools to hold commencement ceremonies Saturday at the Cox Convention Center in downtown Oklahoma City

The Oklahoma City suburb was hit by a strong tornado Monday; 24 people died and hundreds were injured.

The Moore School District canceled its school year after the tornado hit the Plaza Towers and Briarwood elementary schools, but wants graduation ceremonies to go on.
