The Texas legislature on Tuesday passed a bill that would ban abortion in the state if the U.S. Supreme Court one day overturns Roe v. Wade.
The proposed legislation, HB 1280, would be enacted in the event that Roe v. Wade gets overturned. It would, 30 days after a Supreme Court ruling, make it illegal for a person in the state to “knowingly perform, induce, or attempt an abortion.”
