'Extremist politicians are on a crusade to force Texans into pregnancy and childbirth against their will, no matter how devastating the consequences.'
The conservative-dominated Texas Supreme Court late Friday allowed a nearly century-old abortion ban to take effect, blocking a lower court order that had temporarily allowed the state's clinics to continue offering the procedure without the threat of legal retribution and financial penalties. As the Texas Tribune reports, the 1925 law 'made performing an abortion, by any method, punishable by two to 10 years in prison.
'These laws are confusing, unnecessary, and cruel,' said Marc Hearron, senior counsel at the Center for Reproductive Rights. 'Texas' trigger ban is not scheduled to take effect for another two months, if not longer. This law from nearly one hundred years ago is banning essential healthcare prematurely, despite clearly being long repealed.
