On Wednesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott revealed that Texas passed a pro-life bill protecting “every unborn child with a heartbeat.”
“The heartbeat bill is now LAW in the Lone Star State,” Abbott said in a tweet on Wednesday. “This bill ensures the life of every unborn child with a heartbeat will be saved from the ravages of abortion.”
Oh WOW… What they won’t tell you about testosterone injections!
Check out what the Daily Caller reported:
Texas’ Heartbeat Act bans abortions after the unborn baby has a heartbeat. By the end of the fourth week of pregnancy, according to the Cleveland Clinic, the unborn baby’s tiny heart tube will beat about 65 times a minute, and the baby’s heartbeat can be detected by about six weeks.
The law, which makes exceptions for medical emergencies but not in cases of rape or incest, gives private citizens both in and out of Texas the power to sue abortion clinics or individuals who help women obtain abortions, according to the Texas Tribune. This may make the law more difficult to challenge in court, the publication noted.
Liberals are obviously furious that they can no longer murder innocent unborn children in the state of Texas.

“We may not agree on the issue of abortion, but we should all be able to agree that #SB8 invites out-of-state extremists to use our legal system to harass doctors and healthcare providers who are simply doing their job within the letter of the law,” said Democratic State Rep. Donna Howard earlier in May.
“The Texas Heartbeat Act is the strongest Pro-Life bill passed by the Legislature since Roe v. Wade and will save thousands of lives,” said Texas Right to Life Senior Legislative Associate Rebecca Parma in a statement last week. “This is a historic day and now is the time to build on our momentum.”
