Ashcroft seeks abortion records

Two articles this week report that the Justice Department has subpoenaed medical records of women seeking so-called partial-birth abortions in several cities. Mark Taylor, writing for Crain’s Chicago Business, reports that a judge in Chicago squashed a request for records from Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Eric Lichtbau,
writing in today’s NY Times, reports that a Manhattan judge has ordered several New York hospitals to turn over the records.
