Senate Bill 8, or SB8, effectively bans abortions after six weeks for all but those in a life-threatening condition – making no exceptions in cases of rape or incest.
. It marks the latest chapter in an ongoing battle over reproductive rights within a state where abortion access is already severely limited.
Thus, SB8 has laid the groundwork for a legal Wild West that would all but force every abortion provider in the state to shut down immediately for fear of being overwhelmed with expensive ongoing courtroom battles. Many pro-life organisations are already launching “tip lines” where people seeking or who have undergone abortions can be reported to like-minded litigious vigilantes, and equally concerning is the broad array of people who could be targeted by these legal attacks.
