Texas Supreme Court Upholds Abortion Ban, Rejects Health Risk Challenge

The Texas Supreme Court has upheld the state's restrictive abortion law, rejecting a challenge from women with serious pregnancy complications. The court ruled that the law's exceptions for medically necessary abortions are sufficiently broad, despite claims of vagueness. This decision closes another legal avenue for opponents seeking clarity on the law, which imposes severe penalties on doctors performing abortions. The ruling has sparked outrage among abortion rights activists, who argue it leaves Texans with no recourse but to vote for change.
