By Gabriella Borter (Reuters) - Missouri Governor Mike Parson on Wednesday renewed his intention to close Missouri's sole abortion clinic for failing to meet state licensing standards, a move that would make it the only U.S. state with no legal abortion provider. Planned Parenthood, the national women's health provider that operates the clinic, sued the Missouri department of health on Tuesday after the department told the clinic it could not approve a license until it interviewed seven doctors that worked there.
