Missouri's Republican attorney general has pledged to enforce some laws restricting abortion despite a new constitutional amendment widely expected to undo the state's near-total ban on the procedure.

Andrew Bailey’s letter to the governor-elect didn’t discuss TRAP laws that made the procedure virtually impossible to obtain even before Missouri’s ban.

Rep. Justin Sparks filed a resolution Monday that would go before voters, asking them to block the right to an abortion.

The leader of Planned Parenthood Great Plains says the move is a ploy to prevent a Jackson County judge from potentially knocking down other abortion restrictions. Andrew Bailey says his office will continue to enforce laws requiring parental consent and outlawing coercion.
