#TEXANS Bookmark this article. Read it. Print it. Share it. Women and their doctors must know this information so that any woman with a pregnancy emergency - such as ectopic pregnancy - can get lifesaving treatment without delay. There’s a SPECIFIC exception for terminating ectopic pregnancies

These Texas doctors want to make sure people know their abortion rights during medical emergencies
Texas passed the Life of the Mother Act in 2025, aiming to clarify the narrow medical exception to the state's abortion ban. Advocates are still working to spread the word.
