AGâ??s office says plans to offer second-trimester abortions at UW are off

The attorney generalâ??s office is claiming that the UW has abandoned its plans to offer second-trimester abortions at the Madison Surgery Center.

UW Health officials would not comment verbally but have promised a written response by early afternoon Wednesday.

In an April 30 letter to Eau Claire attorney Karen Mueller, Assistant Attorney General Kevin Potter would not be pursuing a requested investigation into the surgery centerâ??s plan to offer abortions because of the facilityâ??s own change in plans.
