Texas lawmaker introduces bill to clarify medical exceptions in state’s abortion ban
- Republican state legislators in Texas introduced a sweeping 43-page bill to limit abortion access by targeting healthcare networks and online orders for abortion pills, influenced by Texas Right to Life.
- The proposed legislation would enable the state attorney general to impose civil liabilities on distributors of abortion pills and prosecute abortion providers.
- If enacted, the law would make it a felony to assist with funding abortions, including covering travel expenses to out-of-state facilities.
- Experts warn that this bill represents a broad attack on abortion medication, potentially influencing regulations and access to abortion information beyond Texas.
