This viral thread just highlighted the draconian reality of Texas' 6-week abortionban:
: “Today, a new law takes effect in Texas that directly violates the precedent established in the landmark case of Roe v. Wade. This all-out assault on reproductive health effectively bans abortion for the nearly 7 million Texans of reproductive age.
While groups such as Planned Parenthood are now organising protests and petitions to try and reverse the ban , for now, people trying to access abortions in Texas face a challenging future.by Texas-based women’s healthcare worker @gracieminabox highlights, at the centre of this ban are real people facing indescribable situations – and we mustn’t forget that.
“All names above, obviously, have been changed,” the thread continued. “The stories have not been. Had any of these patients presented for abortion care in Texas tomorrow, the law would have required us to turn them away.”
