Kansas' only Democrat in Congress is hoping abortion-rights voters remain fired up enough to save her swing-district seat even if some of them blame her party for housing and grocery prices.

A vote is looming in Kansas that could clear the way for the Legislature to more strictly regulate or ban abortion, but abortion opponents are hesitating to say what they intend to do if they win.

In the decadeslong struggle for abortion rights, some men have played an active supporting role, through organizations and as legislators and abortion providers.

Organizers of a planned new women's health clinic that would offer abortions in Wyoming vow to press ahead with their plans despite a suspected arson attack, protests, harassing messages and the chance that abortion could soon become illegal in the state and several others.

Police believe an overnight fire in Wyoming that damaged a building being renovated to house a new abortion clinic was deliberately set.
