1. The ACLU of Texas is doing the hard, necessary work of keeping abortion safe and legal. n/t

2. Remind me again how many of those making this decision

have ever been pregnant? Or ever might possibly be?

Okay.

5. Seven on that circuit

Not sure who was in the panel rejecting the emergency stay

3. This is sooo maddening! TX ...bigger at everything including a big ugly law

4. You know that isn't going to happen. Say bye bye to Roe v Wade

Ms. American Taliban and the rest of the reproductive slavery promoting members of that court are not going to protect safe and legal abortion rights in America. They were put there specifically NOT to.

7. Two different things

The district court hasn’t even made the initial ruling - let alone had any appellate court uphold it.

This is primarily a question of whether the law can go into effect while the trial goes forward. I would have expected a court to pause the law given the imbalance in harms between that and letting it go forward… but it could be years before an actual decision from this case were to actually overturn Roe.

Of course… they could uphold it very quickly.

6. Thank Gawd for the ACLU. Time to go give them a few $$$

And yes, I know this is a "Hail Mary," but at least SOMEONE is trying.
