The overturning of Roe v. Wade in June 2022 had many people in awe, as the Court revoked the original 1973 decision and stated it would be up to the people of each state to determine their abortion laws.
Since this decision, you may be wondering what’s available. Here are the facts regarding how the overturning of Roe v. Wade affected the state of Texas.
Texas Abortion Laws
There are around 13 states with abortion bans, including Texas. Texas previously had a 6-week abortion ban, and since Roe was overturned, all abortions are banned in the state, with no exceptions.
Miscarriage and ectopic pregnancies are still legally treatable, as this is a matter of great concern since these complications can cause ill health effects to women.
