Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott Signs Law Banning ALL ********* at...


Recommended Posts

Texas law currently bans ******** after 20 weeks, with exceptions for a woman with a life-threatening medical condition or if the fetus has a severe abnormality

Texas became on Wednesday the largest state with a law that bans ********* before many women even know they are pregnant – without exceptions for r/ape or incest.

There is also unique provision in the new law that essentially leaves enforcement to private citizens through lawsuits against doctors or anyone who helps a woman get an ********, including nurses, front desk staff or even the person who drove the patient to the ******** appointment.

The law signed by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott puts Texas in line with more than a dozen other states that ban ********* after the detection of a fetal heartbeat, as early as six weeks. Federal courts have mostly blocked the measures from taking effect

Republican Governor Greg Abbott signed the bill Wednesday that puts Texas in line with more than a dozen other states that ban ********* after the detection of a fetal heartbeat, which can happen as early as six weeks into the pregnancy. Federal courts have so far mostly blocked the measures from taking effect.

The new Texas law will go into effect in September if it is not first stopped by the courts. The Supreme Court, however, agreed this week to take up a Mississippi law that bans ******** after 15 weeks of pregnancy.  ******** rights activists worry that a ruling favorable to the state could lay the groundwork for allowing even more ******** restrictions, including so-called fetal heartbeat bills.

Texas' version of the heartbeat law is unique in that it prohibits state officials from enforcing the ban. Instead, it allows anyone - even someone outside Texas - to sue an ******** provider or anyone else who may have helped someone get an ******** after the limit, and seek financial damages of up to $10,000 per defendant.

Critics say that provision would allow ******** opponents to flood the courts with lawsuits to harass doctors, patients, nurses, domestic violence counselors, those who drive women to clinics or even a parent who paid for a procedure.

Texas law currently bans ******** after 20 weeks, with exceptions for a woman with a life-threatening medical condition or if the fetus has a severe abnormality. The new law could ban an ******** as soon as six weeks into the pregnancy and would not have an exception for pregnancies that are a result of incest or r***.  More than 90 percent of ********* take place in the first 13 weeks of a woman's pregnancy, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The Supreme Court will probably hear the Mississippi case in the fall, with a decision likely in spring 2022. It will be the first ********-related case heard by the latest addition to the court, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, whome pro-******** activists claim could be a threat to a woman's right to choose. During her confirmation, critics and even some progressive lawmakers claimed Coney Barrett, a devout Catholic, would not be able to act as an impartial in certain cases due to her religion. They even insisted she recuse herself from some cases like those involving the death penalty or ********.

'It is appalling that in defiance of public opinion and public health, state politicians remain committed to controlling our bodies,' Planned Parenthood Action Fund President Alexis McGill Johnson said in a statement on Wednesday.

Texas' new law will allow citizens to bring a civil lawsuit against anyone who 'knowingly engages in conduct that aids or abets the performance or inducement of an ********, including paying for or reimbursing the costs of an ******** through insurance or otherwise,' if the ******** violates the provisions of the law. 

In an open letter earlier this month, some 200 Texas physicians voiced concern that the bill would expose doctors to the risk of 'frivolous lawsuits that threaten our ability to provide healthcare.'

'Regardless of our personal beliefs about ********, as licensed physicians in Texas, we implore you to not weaponize the judicial branch against us to make a political point,' the letter said.

What if he got exposed to incest or r*** himself, and somehow was able to get pregnant from it. People like him making such laws should have some experience with what he actually promotes in order know what he is actually doing :ririshade1_rihanna_annoyed_window_bye_irritated_mad_black:.

Am i understanding this right; he would prefer a baby to live when its parents are a parent/child of that parent, or siblings? WTF tell me i misunderstand please :decisions_britney_thinking_confused_focusing_unsure_xfactor_bw_black_white:

It's true, people shouldn't kill their babies. I'm on God's side, He'll bring ruin to those who ruin the world. This won't solve anything. 

Keep your religion out of women's bodies and mind your own damn business.  This bill is disgusting.

Have you always been very religious? Is it hard being gay but being so devout to a religion that condemns homose/xuality? This question isn't meant in a snarky way but a legit question of how this weighs on you.

He's Straight™ iirc so this doesn't apply to him.

Anyway, I think there should've been an exception in the case of rape, but I guess they thought it would be a complicated loophole.

Oops I didnt know. I thought i read from him about not acting on his gayness because of his religion. I guess i confused him with another exhaler. 

I too think there should be an exception for r.ape. To think something so traumatic happening and then being forced to take the responsibility of taking care of your assaulters forming baby for 9 months minimum (if they choose to give up the baby for adoption). How is that not cruel and unusual punishment especially for a victim.

God isn't really, sweetie. Women's and LGBTQ health is...

 

...and frankly, if you knew anything about Women's health, you would know how difficult it is to gauge whether or not someone is pregnant at six weeks, and easily it is to miss.
