State Rep. Ann Johnson (D-Houston) filed a bill to “ensure medically necessary exceptions” for Texas’ abortion laws by clarifying healthcare providers’ liability when performing abortions for various motivations — alleging that Gov. Greg Abbott banned abortions in Texas with no exceptions.
“Texas women were robbed of their freedom. Some were even robbed of their lives. I just filed HB 1493 to ensure medically necessary exceptions for this dangerous abortion ban,” Johnson posted on X.
