This week, Dechert partner Linda Goldstein, Travis (T.J.) Tu of the Center for Reproductive Rights and Diana Salgado of Planned Parenthood successfully challenged an executive order by Oklahoma’s Gov. Kevin Stitt that shut down all abortion services in the state, including the administration of medications for medication abortions. Stitt claimed the move was necessary to preserve the personal protective equipment and hospital beds needed to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.

Representing three of the four abortion clinics in Oklahoma, Goldstein (working pro bono), Tu and Salgada worked around the clock, filing a lawsuit in the Western District of Oklahoma to enjoin the order.
