St. Louis sued after mayor signs bill using COVID relief to fund abortion travel costs

signed a bill allocating federal funds to out-of-state abortion expenses last week, Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt promptly filed a lawsuit against the city.
St. Louis’s "Reproductive Equity Fund" taps into $1.5 million in American Rescue Plan funding, dedicating $1 million specifically to providing logistical support for abortion, "including but not limited to the funding of childcare, transportation, and other logistical support needs." Missouri’s trigger law banned abortions in all cases except for medical emergencies, making it a class B felony to perform one.
Attorney General Schmitt, who is currently running for Senate in the Aug. 2 Republican primary, called the fund "blatantly illegal." Missouri law explicitly bars the use of public funds for "performing or assisting an abortion" and "encouraging or counseling a woman to have an abortion not necessary to save her life."
 Jones, in her comments to the St. Louis American, equated his lawsuit to a "bully" tactic.
"I will not back down when our opponents threaten, bully, or demean our safety," Jones said. "Especially the attorney general, who is more concerned with chasing clout than healthcare."
"The Reproductive Equity Fund will empower St. Louisans to make the best healthcare decisions for themselves and their communities while addressing the disparities exacerbated by the COVID-19 crisis," she said.
