How much more taxpayer money is Texas willing to spend on this ridiculous campaign to deprive women of their right to an abortion?
Do these people even have a clue as to what they are talking about? Have they considered, for instance, that a fetus at ten weeks gestation is about an inch and a half long? They want something smaller than a cocktail shrimp to have a decent burial?

And what about miscarriages? Will women who have early pregnancy losses be required to preserve the clump of tissue expelled from their bodies and make funeral arrangements?

SMH. This is beyond ridiculous.
