Texas Abortion Law Reinstated

The Texas law banning most abortions is back on. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has reversed a lower court’s decision to block the Texas Heartbeat Bill. That means the nation’s toughest abortion law resumes in Texas, just after an Austin court suspended Senate Bill 8. The New Orleans-based appeals court granted an emergency order that puts the law back in place for now, pending a review of the state’s appeal.
