So holds the Eighth Circuit, in my view quite rightly, given the Court's abortion rights caselaw. Prisoners understandably have to lose plenty of rights, whether because of prison security needs or because the loss of the right is part of the punishment. But accepting (as the Eighth Circuit must) that the Court has held that women have the right to choose an abortion, there's no substantial basis for restricting those rights this way; the Circuit's fairly detailed analysis of the state's various arguments strikes me as quite persuasive.
