Sheboygan County District Attorney Joel Urmanski said he plans to appeal Dane County Judge Diane Schlipper ruling that makes abortions legal again in Wisconsin. 

On Tuesday, Schlipper reaffirmed her ruling from July that the state's 1849 abortion ban applies to feticide, not consensual medical abortions. 

"I am obligated to comply with that ruling unless the decision is stayed pending appeal or ultimately reversed," Urmanski said in a statement. 

Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu (R-Oostburg), whose district represents Sheboygan County, suggested he wants Urmanski to defy Schlipper's ruling and enforce the ban when asked about the lawsuit.

LaMahieu is a member of this all-male, whites-only club.
