Bill to Stop Flow of Abortion Pills Into Texas Clears House Panel
- On Friday in Austin, Texas, Senate Bill 2880 was approved by a committee, advancing efforts to limit the distribution of abortion pills within the state.
- The bill advances amid concerns that Texas abortion laws are being undermined by out-of-state sources sending abortion pills despite the state ban.
- Senate Bill 2880 allows lawsuits up to $100,000 against individuals distributing abortion-inducing drugs, expanding wrongful-death statutes without requiring proof pills caused death.
- Rep. Mitch Little commented, "It will save the lives of babies," while critics said the bill sat nearly a month without action in committee before an 8-5 vote moved it forward.
- If passed by the House, the bill could intensify enforcement against abortion pill distributors and limit legal challenges in state courts, signaling a stricter abortion regime.
