"Today, I filed HB 2709 to close the last remaining abortion loophole in Texas."

David Weigel Retweeted

Today, I filed HB 2709 to close the last remaining abortion loophole in Texas.
Allowing access to self-induced abortions and protecting the ability of others to coerce women into abortion are some of the least loving things our state can do for mothers and their children.
My legislation will ensure that the life of every person, including innocent babies in the womb, will be equally protected by law, and women cannot be preyed upon and pressured into an abortion.
