NPR – Kate Cox, 31, lives in the Dallas area with her husband and two young kids. About 20 weeks into her third pregnancy, she learned her fetus has Trisomy 18, a genetic condition with slim to no chance of survival. She’d also suffered cramping and other symptoms, severe enough to send her to the emergency room multiple times in a two week period.
Cox believed she was a good candidate for the narrow exception to the three overlapping abortion bans in Texas. That exception says abortion is allowed when the mother’s life is threatened or when a pregnancy “poses a serious risk of substantial impairment of a major bodily function.”
Although a district court judge granted the request, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton immediately appealed it to the Texas Supreme Court. He also sent a warning letter, shared on social media, to the three hospitals where Cox might have had the procedure saying they would face penalties despite the lower court’s permission. That was last Thursday. On Friday, the Texas Supreme court put a temporary hold on that ruling, pending review.
On Monday, Cox made the decision to leave the state to get the procedure. A few hours later, the Texas Supreme Court ruled against her and sided with Paxton.
Man, what a FUCKED up place Texas is. Who in their right mind would want to live there? Ken Paxon is a VILE human being who should have been aborted, and then his remains should have been shot into the sun. Fuck this old ass boomer for thinking he knows better than medical professionals. This is a topic that is no one’s fucking business except Kate Cox, and the fact that I even am even writing about this is insanity.
The gall of this motherfucker to just straight up tell the lower court they were wrong and get directly involved.
Like do you understand how traumatic this is? This is a lady who can either die or become permanently sterile if she continues this pregnancy, and Ken Paxton does not give a shit. He’s over there writing letters threatening doctors, hospitals. What a cock. sucker. It’s traumatic enough what she’s going through, and no she has to leave the state. Explain to me how the hell this is pro life if the mother could die and the fetus is guaranteed to die. You’re literally forcing this woman to give birth to a nonviable baby and potentially die herself.
