"Texas faces lawsuit from 8 women over dangerous abortion bans"

The Center for Reproductive Rights is adding eight more women to a lawsuit against Texas over its abortion ban, bringing the total number of plaintiffs to 15. The suit alleges that Texas' abortion bans have denied the plaintiffs and countless other pregnant people necessary and potentially life-saving medical care because physicians in the state fear liability. The lawsuit is asking a judge to temporarily and permanently suspend the Texas law due to the uncertainty surrounding the meaning of the exception in the state's abortion bans.
