Women Sue Texas Over Restrictive Abortion Laws
Summary by NewsWall May 22 23
- Women in Texas are unable to terminate their pregnancies due to some of the most restrictive abortion laws in the country.
- In a lawsuit, they are asking a Texas court to stop some of these restrictions, joining five other women who previously filed a similar lawsuit.
- Texas doctors who perform abortions face lifelong imprisonment and high fines, forcing many women to seek providers who are unwilling to even discuss pregnancy termination.
- The lawsuit serves as a nationwide model for abortion rights advocates to challenge strict new abortion laws in states that have introduced them since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year.
