2. Is Texas paying for the medical bills being forced on this woman?

So along with all the emotional angst she's going through I'm sure she's also worried about how much her insurance will pay. ER visits aren't cheap!! Maybe these women should sue the state for their medical expenses. This is so goddamned outrageous it makes me seethe to think about it.

Men go to the medical center for their healthcare.
Women go to the courthouse for theirs.
