A pregnant Texas woman who says her unborn baby has a genetic condition and carrying the child to term could threaten her life filed suit against the state Tuesday, asking a court to declare she has the right to terminate the pregnancy.
Kate Cox said the state’s current abortion ban puts her husband and her gynecologist at legal risk if she has an abortion in Texas.
The lawsuit is believed to be one of the first attempts in the country by an individual seeking a court-ordered abortion since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year, according to the New York Times.
Instead of a war on drugs they’ve really pivoted to a war on women and the poor. How wonderful!
If you’re wondering why I say poor, it’s because abortion bans will always impact poor individuals who can’t afford to travel to other states safely. Rich people will never feel the effects of it
