(521 posts)While people are fighting about the abortion restriction, and they should, they are leaving out the most important aspect. They are leaving out where will the $10,000 come from if it comes from the State then the 'Texas government isn't involved it's up to vigilantly groups' is wrong. Because if the money is coming from the "government then the government is involved". Or, where is the money coming from if not the government then WHERE? Follow the money and the "law" can be overturned...

(26,693 posts)The $10k comes from the person who is sued (presumably the abortion provider in most cases).
The money isnt what will overturn the law. That will happen the first time they find a legitimate target to sue (i.e., the first person who tried to enforce the law).
The first shot appears to be going well
but wont impact the law itself until an actual case appears (which might mean that this one is a mistake)

Besides isn't ignoring subpoenas how Republicans operate?
