If you think this is just about Texas or âredâ states, youâre wrong. Attacks on abortion anywhere are a threat to our rights everywhere.
Today Texasâ SB8 takes effect. This dangerous and extreme law bans abortion as early as six weeks (way before most people even know theyâre pregnant) and includes an unprecedent provision that allows private individuals - including anti-abortion protestors - to file lawsuits enforcing the bans. Thereâs even a monetary reward - up to $10,000 - for successful lawsuits.
There have been over 90 abortion restrictions enacted this year alone - more than any year since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973. Itâs time to raise the alarm - keep #bansoffourbodies.
