On Wednesday Texas abortion clinics went to the Supreme Court to ask for a repeal of shrinking the abortion clinic amount from 40 to 10 throughout the entirety of Texas. The last major abortion case was in 2007, so the likelihood of this case being taken is high. The Texans fight is about the fact that Texas is the second biggest state in terms of population and with that comes around 5 million women reproducing a year. Out of that 5 million around 60,000 have abortions. They fought with saying that if the law was put into action that would only lead to the women being put into harm or finding unsafe ways to terminate the pregnancies. The legislatures of Texas are saying that they law needs to be passed because it is for the heath of the women, while the abortion providers are fighting back with saying that it is unnecessary and are just doing it to cut down on costs. The Supreme Court will rule soon if they plan to take the case or not.
