Several reproductive rights groups are filing a lawsuit against the State of Oklahoma over new abortion restrictions passed earlier this year. Among the laws set to take effect in November are a ban on abortions after a heartbeat is detected unless the mother's life is in danger, along with a limit on who can perform abortions to board-certified OB/GYNs.

Among the plaintiffs in the suit are the Center for Reproductive Rights and the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
