In a just world they'd be left with Chick-fil-A & Hobby Lobby.

1. Good grief!

2. What damn law is this breaking? They can outlaw the abortion

procedure but now they want to control if a woman goes to another state or country for it?

Bullshit. I don't see how any of this can be constitutional. A company can give its employees medical benefits.

8. The crazy thing is Paxton can eventually take it to the Clarence Thomas led Supreme Court

and get a 5 - 4 decision in his favor.

3. He should do it. Then companies should relocate to another state.

Let’s see how he likes them apples, when he starts costing the state jobs and revenue.

4. Congrats, Texas, you win the booby prize in the New Race To The Bottom

This a story about when states fuck with corporations and lose said corporation and their tax base to another state. Then the best and brightest all move to another state that doesn't hate it's own citizens. Moronic libertarian billionaires will likely still move there, but they'll have to employ prison labor to make their products. Trust me, Amazon is looking into this as we speak as they find it more and more difficult to find workers.

5. Hey corporations! Elections matter. Republicans need to be voted out!

Stop $$$ to ALL republicans NOW!

6. So he'll put Elon in jail?

Maybe Elon should reconsider his move to Texas. He can always come back to California.

7. Do it, you Picasso-faced, criminal motherfucker.

…and watch your state economy get flushed down the toilet.

9. Well then companies will be moving out of Texas

Buh bye

10. He stands no chance in court on this

especially given that Kavanaugh is already on record as of like a week ago that something like this directly breaks the whole interstate travel part of the 14th Amendment. This would be dead in the water & he knows it.
