Texas Republican Lawmakers Continue Push to Restrict Abortion Rights

Every Texan knows and loves someone who’s had an abortion, said Caroline Duble, political director for the pro-choice abortion advocacy group Avow. “I think it’s a real shame that in the midst of a deadly pandemic, the Public Health Committee chose to prioritize banning abortion and further jeopardizing our access to health care,” she said. One of the most “egregious” bills for consideration is House Bill 1515, Duble said. Filed by Stephenville state Rep. Shelby Slawson, it would amount to a near-total ban on abortion; it would ban the procedure as soon as a fetal heartbeat is detected, which can be as early as six weeks.

Texas fetal heartbeat bill written to survive legal challenge

Following the lead of conservative politicians in nearly a dozen other states, Texas lawmakers are pushing a bill that would effectively ban most abortions by prohibiting the procedure once a fetal heartbeat can be detected typically before a woman is aware she is pregnant. Federal courts have halted attempts in other states to implement such laws, but the architects of the proposal moving through the Texas Legislature believe that the bill they’ve crafted could withstand the same legal challenges that blocked the effort in other states. While Senate Bill 8 includes the same building blocks as other so-called “heartbeat bans,” it differs in a major way: It leaves enforcement of the law up to the public.
