Texas Asks State Supreme Court to Uphold Abortion Ban to Save Babies From Abortions

Texas has appealed a judge’s temporary restraining order against its pre-Roe abortion ban so it can fully enforce the law and save babies from abortions.

Texas was the first state to successfully ban abortions before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. It’;s heartbeat law prohibited abortions after 6 weeks and included a private enforcement mechanism to avoid being overturned in court.

Following the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton confirmed that the state’s pre-Roe abortion ban has come into effect to ban aboritons starting at conception.

However, four days after the Supreme Court of the United States overturned Roe v. Wade, a Harris County judge granted a temporary restraining order blocking some government officials from enforcing its pre-Roe abortion bans against several abortion businesses. The abortion facilities asked the judge to prevent the enforcement of Texas’ pre-Roe abortion bans against these specific abortion companies.

While abortion it still generally banned in the state under the pre-Roe law and still banned after 6 weeks under the heartbeat law, Paxton announced today that he has appealed the ruling so the abortion ban is in full force across the state, and not just everywhere except Houston.

“The trial court was wrong to enjoin enforcement of Texas’s longstanding prohibitions on elective abortion. I will not hesitate to act in defense of unborn Texans put in jeopardy by plaintiffs’ wrongful actions and the trial court’s erroneous order,” Paxton said in a tweet.

Some DAs are threatening to not prosecute illegal abortions, but the trigger law gives Paxton the power to enforce the law. Under Texas’s trigger law, which will go into effect 30 days after the Supreme Court issues its official judgment in the case overturning Roe, Paxton could override local district attorneys and go after abortion businesses and abortion funds.

And although Paxton can’t prosecute abortion practitioners under the law on his own, he can seek civil penalties of up to $100,000 per abortion.
