Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on May 19 signed a bill that bans abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected.

“Our creators endowed us with the right to life. And yet, millions of children lose their right to life every year because of abortion,” Abbott, a Republican, said at the bill-signing ceremony in Austin. The bill “ensures that the life of every unborn child who has a heartbeat will be saved from the ravages of abortion.”
