We waited almost the whole weekend… to cool off about this. But it is preposterous that the Sixth Circuit would even temporarily let such a law take effect.
This is in error, as a matter of federal law. The claim that any state legislature may take away federal constitutional rights (of privacy between doctor and patient — by discriminating against only one class of patients)… is transparently… incorrect.
More in the coming weeks.
Just like the Friends of Georges’ challenge / outcome (also unique to Tennessee), the people of the Volunteer State will see their taxpayer dollars go to paying perhaps another $1 million — for the challengers’ legal fees — for having to oppose a law that interferes with patient/doctor privacy, is facially invalid (discriminating against only one class of patient) and is a morally repugnant, repressive “law”. Damnation.
