Lunatic Rs in TX now will jail teller who cashed check for abortion procedure

These people are bat-shit crazy..as our Lawrence would put it......The sweeping anti-abortion bill that passed the Texas House May 19 could allow nearly anyone involved in the process of an unlawful abortion to be charged with a state jail felony, [Rep. Joe Moody, a former prosecutor said]. That includes the doctor who performed the abortion, but also the person who drove the woman to the clinic, the receptionist who booked the appointment and even the bank teller who cashed the check that paid for the procedure.

The goons they send to office write these woman hating bills and spend a fortune defending them all the way to the USSC, where they get slapped down (and this one is so ridiculous it will) and then they start all over again. Texas: the home of happy lawyers.

walls they find in order to push Roe v Wade to the Supreme Court for redefining. This administration had made this clear.
