Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Rep. Adam Kinzinger expressed reservations about the law allowing any private citizen to enforce the law.

Sunday that despite being “personally opposed to abortion” and believing in some state-level restrictions, the Texas law “seems to be a little bit extreme.”

The Maryland governor specifically pointed to the law’s “problem of bounties,” as the Texas law—known as—says government officials cannot enforce the law, but rather directs private citizens to file lawsuits against anyone who “aids and abets” an abortion and stipulates they can earn at least $10,000 in damages if they win.

Kinzinger said on CNN that while he’s “pro-life,” what he “doesn’t like to see” is letting “everyone being able to tattle” and the fact that under SB 8, private citizens are “deputized to enforce this abortion law” against even potentially Uber drivers that transport a Texan to their abortion. The GOP lawmaker also opposes the fact the law does not include exceptions in the case of rape and incest, though SB 8 does allow abortions in the case of medical emergencies.

A LITTLE BIT?!?!!!?

Talibans + Republicans = Talibanucans in Texas. Their motto is simple- suppress women, spread fears.

Texas abortion law unique in many respects, may not pass muster in Texas State Courts. 1 thing law will do is make many lawyers richer, which appears to be the bottom-line for many laws, regardless of the social disruption of civil order the laws occasion

they all need to be recalled

Forbes and staff have been peeing their diapers, they want abortions to be right up to the last sec. before birth

Extremists on the Left Inspire Extremists on the right and peoplyare not coming together for a reasonable solution.

you cant be pro-life yet argue against abortion being banned lol.

Those are not real republicans.

Please answer this ONE QUESTION: What do women have against precautions using one of the many birth control options? It is one thing if it is for health, rape or incest; but over 680,000 performed in the U.S. is a bit much!

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great.

horrible

Meanwhile women with $s can travel to get access to their healthcare needs, women without $s cannot. I don't get these people. Planned Parenthood is literally a lib murder factory. They have killed more people than the holocaust. Can you imagine how f**ked up this world would be if they didn't enjoy killing off their own kids?
