Abortion opponents pushed a bill through the Kansas Legislature early Friday to require providers to tell patients that a medication abortion can be “reversed” once it’s started — a measure that could face a state court challenge if its supporters can overcome the governor’s expected veto.

Republican lawmakers pursued the bill even though experts dispute abortion opponents' claims about medication abortions.
