Texas Court Stops City of San Antonio From Using Funds to Pay for Out-of-State Abortion Travel
- Yesterday, an appeals court issued a temporary injunction preventing San Antonio from allocating funds toward assistance for out-of-state abortion travel.
- This ruling follows Attorney General Ken Paxton's appeal against the city program, which he calls illegal under the Texas Gift Clause.
- San Antonio had approved a $100,000 allocation within its Reproductive Justice Fund to support downstream services, including travel costs for abortion access.
- Paxton asserted that no Texas municipality should be providing financial support for residents seeking abortions outside the state and condemned the program as harsh, illegal, and lacking moral integrity.
- The court’s ruling halts the program’s implementation while the appeal is ongoing, and the city is exploring options after expressing disappointment with the broad prohibition.
