The Texas Senate has passed a bill to allow citizens to sue anyone who manufactures, mails, or distributes abortion pills in Texas for $100,000. Senate Bill 2880 would help expand the Texas Heartbeat Act, which was passed in 2021. Under the Texas Heartbeat Act, abortions cannot be committed after a preborn child’s heartbeat is detected, which is typically around 21 days gestation. The law is unique because rather than enacting criminal penalties, it allowed individual citizens to file lawsuits against anyone who violates the law. Last December, New York abortionist Margaret Carpenter was caught shipping abortion pills to women in...

In a letter to FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.)...
