A federal judge on Sunday blocked a Mississippi law that could shut down the state’s only abortion clinic, the AP reports:

U.S. District Judge Daniel Jordan issued a temporary restraining order the day the new law took effect. He set a July 11 hearing to determine whether to keep the block in place until legal challenges to the statute can be resolved.
