They're going after medication abortion next.

Cruel Bastards ....

As a novel six-week abortion ban has significantly curtailed abortion care in Texas, another bill, aimed at restricting medication abortion, is set to become law in the state.

The Legislature this week advanced the bill, called Senate Bill 4, which would limit access to medication abortions for many. For now, patients can obtain the medication up until 10 weeks of pregnancy in the state. The measure would prevent physicians from administering it to people who are more than seven weeks pregnant and prohibit the pills from being mailed in Texas.

The bill is on the desk of Gov. Greg Abbott, who had yet to sign it Thursday afternoon.

Abbott, a Republican, said in a tweet Wednesday that "no freedom is more precious than life itself" and that "Texas will always defend the right to life."

1. The Republican Taliban is going after all contraception.

[Hugin]

7. Ultimately, I agree that is the goal. n/t

10. You need to research the Taliban. As bad as Republicans are...

They are nothing like theTalibanic animals.

[Mister Ed]

16. At least, not yet. n/t

2. How can they prevent USPS deliveries in Texas?

5. Doctors in other states can't prescribe it and send it to Texas

It's like citrus plants can't be mailed to Texas and other citrus producing states...This is due to citrus greening, which is killing citrus..
States can control what can be mail ordered in their state...

Now if Susie in New Mexico wants to send something to Mary in Texas, that's a different story. And Ag departments rarely search private vehicles along I-10 at state borders anymore...

Does not ship to AZ, CA, FL, GA, LA, TX

15. Aidaccess is in Austria and out of the reach of TX laws

They have been helping women obtain medical abortion for years.

Packaging from overseas is very discreet and not readily detectable.

Another measure, for young women keep a pregnancy test available at all times. If your period is just a few days late, test..don’t wait. And for gods sake..DO NOT tell anyone if your are pregnant

3. Because they have been so successful at keeping

out illegal drugs I’m sure this will work exactly the way they are hoping.

8. Apparently a lot of it gets smuggled in from Mexico.

4. "no freedom is more precious than life itself" "Texas will always defend the right to life."

54 prisoners have been executed by the state of Texas since abbott became governor.

12. Their lives DID NOT MATTER...

Because they did acts so horrendous to deserve the death penalty. Like they are rabid dogs needing to be put down.

[Crunchy Frog]

6. Apparently there's a HUGE blackmarket in them already,

in Texas. I expect that to only increase.

The only freedoms more precious than life itself in Texas are gun freedoms, and freedoms to spread deadly diseases all over the place, including to children.

9. The cruelty is everything.. it's what they do.

[jmowreader]

11. Uhhh...

If "no freedom is more precious than life itself," explain the permitless carry of long guns law you just signed.

[peggysue2]

13. If Governor Abbott is s dedicated to defending life, then . . .

he should be defending the actualized lives within his state, the ones held hostage by MAGA supporters refusing to be vaccinated, his own idiotic defiance when it comes to masking and other medically sound practices.

The man is a disgusting hypocrite!

[Hekate]

14. I knew they were going to do this years ago, when they started re-defining contraceptives...

… as abortifacients. According to their lies, IUDs are abortion-inducing instruments because they prevent the implantation of a fertilized EGG. Hormonal birth control pills likewise.

So, once they pass this new bill, I will bet you anything (like maybe a $10,000 reward) they go after contraceptives next.

Blessed be the fruit.
Under his eye.

How about, “Damn them all to the Seven Hells” ?
