Texas Supreme Court Upholds Abortion Ban, Allows Lawsuit to Proceed

The Texas Supreme Court has allowed a lawsuit challenging the state's abortion bans to proceed but refused to block the bans during the litigation. The lawsuit, now involving over 20 women, argues that the bans endanger lives by denying necessary medical care. The court maintained that Texas law permits life-saving abortions but criticized the lower court's broader interpretation of medical emergencies. Critics argue the ruling fails to provide clarity and disregards the plaintiffs' suffering.
