I want to say that this is regarding the Texas law? I'd be very surprised if that is not
considered unconstitutional. Here's why..legally, under our Constitution, the procreative rights are considered
a fundamental right. As such, whatever the government is trying to to has to be
under a strict scrutiny analysis, which is the strictest in terms of protecting the right
in question. The wording is something like the law "has to be narrowly tailored
to achieve a compelling state interest", that is a tough one for the government to surmount.

Yes, this is because of the TX law. I'm sure it will be challenged, and I hope it will get shot down as unconstitutional, but I'm appalled it passed to begin with.

Sort of how I am appalled that PA passed a law last week requiring photo ID to vote, which I hope also gets shot down.

Makes me ashamed to be a Republican right now.
