 And the U.S. appeals court has temporarily restated, reinstated Texas near total ban on abortions. The Fifth Circuit's Court of Appeals agreed to a request from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton that an injunction imposed against the law be lifted. On Wednesday, a lower court had temporarily blocked the bill for the offensive deprivation of the constitutional right to an abortion. The law bans all abortions at about six weeks of pregnancy. It gives any individual the right to sue anyone involved with providing or facilitating an abortion after a fertile cardiac activity is detected. It also makes no exception for pregnancy caused by rape or incest.
