The nine republicans on the Texas supreme court overturned a lower court order allowing an abortion for a pregnant woman whose fetus was diagnosed with a fatal condition.
Ms. Cox’s fetus received a diagnosis of trisomy 18, a genetic abnormality that in all but rare cases results in miscarriage, stillbirth or an infant’s death within the first year after birth. Dr. Karsan, who is also a plaintiff in the Zurawski case, determined that an abortion would be the safest option for the mother’s health.Her doctor argued that carrying the pregnancy to term risked her health and her future ability to have children.
Tough, the supreme court said, that she's at high risk for multiple pregnancy complications, including hypertension, gestational diabetes and infection, those ain't medical emergencies. She needs to be literally dying... then it's okay for a doctor to step in and
try to save her life.
Umm, if democrats don't make the republicans' plan for this Texas law to become federal law in every city and every state the focus of every 2024 campaign ad, they're idiots.
