It's not safe to be pregnant in Texas. Especially since everyone knew this would be the result of an abortion ban.
But also, let's not forget - one of the 90+ doctors could have averted this. They are not off the hook just because Texas's law caused this.

In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.
She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.
Then she died.

The Republican amendment to the bill was needed because the committee chair did not understand that the original bill did not allow parents to opt out their student from being forced to view this propaganda.

This is good news, but as @jessicavalenti.bsky.social & @mintimm.bsky.social explain, it doesn’t mean the administration’s approach to abortion has changed.
As long as mifepristone is approved, the FDA doesn’t really have a choice but to approve the generic too.

But just saw @robinmarty.com point out that it's also to counter the "medication abortion is safer that Tylenol"

Scientists often argue that abortion medication is considered safer than Tylenol whenever there are attacks against it.
And all year anti-abortion groups like Charlotte Lozier have used this comparison to question the safety of both abortion pills & Tylenol.

Abortion rights shouldn’t be a bargaining chip lawmakers use to negotiate what they consider to be “legitimate” political issues. Abortion is inextricably linked with economic, climate, and health care policy. It is a legitimate political issue. You bend on abortion, you’ll bend on anything.
