Texas is setting the stage for the future of medication abortion in the United States.
Following Kacsmaryk's ruling, Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa called Friday a “tragic day for women across America, and another shameful day” for Texas in a news release. He added that religious extremists cherry-picked Kacsmaryk, who they believed would be sympathetic to their views.Mary Elizabeth Castle, director of government relations for Texas Values, told theshe believes it’s fair to say that Texas has continued to “lead the way on life.
Jennifer Dalven, director of the ACLU Reproductive Freedom Project, railed against Kacsmaryk during a press call on Monday. The case in Amarillo is part of the broader push to ban abortion on a national scale and could have ripple effects beyond the reproductive-health realm, she said. “If the courts allow this decision to stand, they will be in essence telling every fringe group with an opposition to a medication or vaccine, ‘Just go find a politically aligned judge who can then, with a stroke of a pen, deny Americans the ability to get the critical life-saving treatment they need,’” Dalven said. “That possibility should have all of us very concerned.”, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we'd like to keep it that way.
