Last year, there were 41 abortion clinics in Texas. On Thursday, 21 were left in the entire state. Today there were just seven. (An eighth is expected to open, but it is unclear whether it is open now.)

Thursday evening, a three judge panel of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans allowed Texas to enforce a key provision of its sweeping abortion law, HB2, passed last year despite a filibuster by state Senator Wendy Davis — now the Democratic candidate for governor.

The fate of the law is still winding its way through the appeals court process. But the Fifth Circuit panel allowed Texas to enforce a provision requiring abortion facilities to meet the building requirements of an ambulatory surgical center....

Currently, seven or eight clinics serve the state’s 5.4 million women of reproductive age across Texas’ vast 268,580 square miles.

As if ... every woman in the state of Texas is clamoring to get surgically raped.

Newsweek trying to save Abortion Barbie’s campaign when even the Democrap Party has tossed in the towel...

Sick is gauging Women as being of Abortion age. How do Women feel about being
herded into that stigma is a good question.

One last hail Mary by the media for the abortion queen.

Abortion Barbie would prefer that women be able to get abortions anywhere, anytime - even in a pig sty.

I guess the Rights failure to call the degenerate communist abortionists “Baby Killers” at every opportunity allows for “Newsweak”’s minor league propagandists to think they still have a shot.

The right wing needs to destroy these monsters once and for all.

Leftists do not even want to have abortion clinics inspected for hygiene

It's interesting that the pro-abortion folks get upset when it's required that the doctor performing abortions should have admitting privileges at a local hospital. Do they not care at all about the woman on whom the abortion is being performed? If she develops complications, she will need to be brought to a hospital, and the doctor who was caring for her needs to be able to work in that hospital.

The fact they're mad about this tells me they don't give a rat's rear end about women, at all, just the dollars they bring to abortion providers.

Abortion always comes down to the same thing.

Convenience.

Tennessee Voters you do not have to vote for the RINO governor to vote YES for Amendment 1 on abortion.

TN is now the #3 state in out of state abortions. We can change that in Nov.

Please do NOT vote for the governor. He wins by default anyway.

ON 1
