Woman Who Sought Court-Ordered Abortion Is Leaving Texas for Procedure
www.nytimes.com
A group representing Kate Cox, whose fetus received a fatal diagnosis, said she was leaving Texas for an abortion rather than wait for a ruling from the Texas Supreme Court.

The court ruled that the lower court made a mistake in ruling that the woman, Kate Cox, who is more than 20 weeks pregnant, was entitled to a medical exception.

…

Ms. Cox asked the lower court for approval after she learned that her fetus had a fatal condition, and after several trips to the emergency room.

In short, the life or health exemptions to abortion bans in Republican-controlled states are meaningless.

    That’s probably true, but why should anyone put their wives, their kids or themselves at risk for voting purposes? This can be la life/death situation and isn’t an ephemeral issue.

        I like how your phone did you wrong, lol. It is a shiny situation. Some people have been saying that they should stay in Florida and Texas even if it’s unsafe for them because of the new laws, glad to hear you’re not one of them.
