“If a local DA were to say 'I'm not going to prosecute abortion in my district,' there's nothing anybody could do about that. Now, there's an element of lawlessness to it, with a DA essentially saying I understand what the law is, enacted by the Legislature and signed by the governor, but the law doesn't matter to me.”


Wrong. The Attorney General can step in when the DA gets out of hand.
