In this April 15, 2013 photograph, Dr. Willie J. Parker, an OB-GYN who travels from Chicago about once a month to work at the Jackson Women’s Health Organization clinic, speaks about his medical background and his desire to provide the women of Mississippi with health care at the Jackson Women’s Health Organization clinic in Jackson, Miss. A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked Mississippi from revoking the license of the state’s only abortion clinic, saying the state cannot close the clinic while it still has a federal lawsuit pending to challenge the 2012 law. A trial date has not been set. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis)
