Texas Republicans, as it seems, had touched
the most sensitive part of Texan Women: abortion. The bill called, SB 5, has
been reintroduced to the Texas senate floor by the push of our governor Rick
Perry despite of it being struck down recently, Texas women were furious. I
have witnessed hundreds and thousands of women from all over Texas protesting
against this measure. This bill would eventually close down most of the
abortion clinic in Texas except five. Many protesters were arguing that the
Republicans are not caring about their constituency’s opinion. They are saying
that this bill would discriminate against women’s health care. The advocates of
this bill are saying that this bill would make the women’s health care safer
and more regulated. The most important thing is this; the bill is now passed
and many of the Republicans including Rick Perry might lose their office
because of this. Article link: The Daily Texan
