Today, @GovAbbott signed #SB8, a dangerous law that would ban abortion before most people even know they are pregnant.
The majority of Texans support access to safe and legal abortion—but politicians are *still* attacking abortion access.

#SB8’s signing comes two days after the Supreme Court’s announcement that it will consider a Mississippi case challenging a ban on abortion after 15 weeks — putting Roe v. Wade in danger and 25 million people at risk of losing abortion access.
In 2021, legislators obsessed with attacking and undermining abortion access & reproductive freedom introduced more than 500 anti-abortion bills.
We will *never* stop fighting back against this cruel extremism and will do everything we can to ensure access to reproductive care.

This law won’t go into effect until September — and we will fight back with everything we have to keep that from happening. Remember: Abortion remains safe and legal in all 50 states, and we will do everything in our power to keep it that way.
