The latest from Diego

1. Aside from our general opposition, we told Republicans the bill would force victims of rape & incest to carry those pregnancies to term. They voted for it anyway. 2. There’s no “other side”. Democrats did not have competing late-term abortion bills. Look for yourself.

“The Texas abortion ban has no exceptions for rape or incest. It wasn’t a typo or drafting error. Every amendment to change it was heard, argued, and shot down. Now there’s only one way to fix it. #vote”

“Compare the Texas Legislature’s efforts toward banning abortion with those for any other aspect of children’s health or welfare. The concern for life evaporates after birth. Cruelty abounds.”

“[T]he war against abortion rights was never meant to be won, it was simply meant to be fought. The post-policy Republican Party is fueled less by substantive goals and more by the search for grievances and power.”

“Started with abortion and the right to privacy. Texas already led the legal attacks on Dreamers. Then on to immigrant children, and education in general. You know how this is going to go unless we make a change. .@BetoORourke”

“For women who have had—or had to contemplate—an abortion, it is a very serious and deeply personal situation. It’s not political. They aren’t asking for and don’t need our input. We have no business there. That is *exactly* why that choice is, and must remain, theirs to make.”

“Along with eliminating choice, the Texas abortion ban also has no exceptions for rape, incest, or severe fatal abnormalities. But we won’t expand Medicaid. Our foster care system is broken. We won’t even cover baby helmets. Is this what you wanted? #txlege”
