On Tuesday, Texas’ law which prevents abortions from occurring after cardiac activity is detectable — around six weeks after conception — went into effect. In a 5 to 4 ruling, the Supreme Court refused to block the law late Wednesday night.
— Shar Dubey, Match Group CEO Unlike other state anti-abortion laws, Texas’ new law enables private citizens within or outside of Texas to file civil lawsuits against anyone who they believe performed or aided an illegal abortion — and receive at least $10,000 if they win their case. He added in a statement published Wednesday that he’s directing his administration to “launch a whole-of-government effort to respond to this decision.”
With the new law, women will have to travel 496 miles round trip, on average, to get an abortion out-of-state, assuming that most or all abortion clinics within Texas will close as a result of the law. In the memo to employees Dubey said that “as a Texas resident, I am shocked that I now live in a state where women’s reproductive laws are more regressive than most of the world,” she added, “including India,” where she immigrated from more than 25 years ago.
Men should have to be fixed to not produce children as well! Why is it always on the women..hmmm because lawmakers are men. Total BS! Men.. u don’t want kids .. snip it!!
For those that do- maybe they’ll send an announcement postcard to Abbott’s office… flipping him the bird.
Great - let the poor who can’t travel far like rich multiply in great numbers and increase their share of population
We should just let them secede as they are an embarrassment.
Only impacts the poor. It doesn't stop abortions.historically, its been proven. Just like prohibition when they tried to make alcohol illegal.
Innocent bystanders should never be killed! unbornbabies
Yes give them time to think about murdering an innocent. Choose first contraception. No second choice unless they write a written confession that the kill babies.
Maybe dont kill babies? Problem solved.
They have a choice. When they get out of Texas they can kill their unborn! SweetLiberty POTUS AbortionBan RepublicOfTexas
Prosecute baby murderers!
Watching the Republican Party is like watching a Karen meltdown in public. It now knows it’s fucking crazy and does nothing to stop.
Time to leave. Leave Texas. Don’t support any business located in Texas. We should start boycotting anything Texas like we did with apartheid.
As the US fiat dollar loses it's foothold on hegemony across the world.. While us covid deaths accelerate (again).. While floods and fires ravage the nation.. While the cost to live is higher than it's ever been in our lifetimes.. We talked about abortion?
It’s unconstitutional and not what the majority of this country believes in in addition to the deliberate economic hit on women
Civil disobedience, starts with 5% of a population to resist a law amd after 10% the gov gets shaky. Crank up the heat
wow
