Once again, Texas blazes trails for American fascism. #HB5510 suppresses any and all online communication about #abortion. Watch Taylor Lorentz’s coverage here.

the young lady accessed your clinic without parental consent? but you are concerned about lack of age verification, right?
pick a lane! #txlege #HB5510
a CHILD put her fetus in her backpack and we're not alarmed that a CHILD did that--we're insisting the fetus is THE CHILD here? a CHILD who did not have an adult to talk to in her life and you're saying she's NOT THE CHILD here?
what it the ever loving fuck? #txlege #HB5510
has someone suggested to this lady that the guy forcing his victim to take abortion pills at gun point may use that gun to end the pregnancy in a whole other way? no? #txlege #HB5510
see lady: the problem is not the abortion pill in those examples you provided but the fact that men are POISONING women sometimes AT GUN POINT.
pretty sure this bill will not stop that. #txlege #HB5510
pretty sure Chelsea Yeoman is very confused about what RH incompatibility is or she wouldn't be using it in a false but politically expedient manner. #txlege #HB5510
pretty sure that this bill won't stop shit.
but, sure, mom deciding to force her daughter who was impregnated by the man said mom brought into their lives to carry to term: GOOD!
mom deciding to assist her daughter that would like an abortion for any reason: BAD!
#txlege #HB5510
I agree that Texas women deserve real care. but they banned the real care, Cupcake. they forced women who are going to have abortions one way or another into this position. you don't care so don't talk about REAL CARE. #txlege #HB5510
or, go with me, lady:
the laws that already exist require the women presenting to ERs--which are NOT 7% of women who take the medications--to lie. the information could be important to their treatment, but this state criminalizes anyone they care for who may have helped. #txlege #HB5510
lemme guess, lady: the person who impregnated and possibly one of their parents coerced you into having said abortion and made you go on your own.
I have heard this story before and this bill doesn't prevent it from recurring. #txlege #HB5510
you read that how many times and you still can't enunciate "vaginal", Denise?
and, no, women do not know that because it is garbage. you should know that by the part that suggests medical abortions cause embryos to go back up the fallopian tube and re-attach.

#HB5510 pop quiz for John Seago:
what's the difference between forcing a woman to become pregnant against her will, forcing a woman to become unpregnant against her will and forcing a woman to remain pregnant against her will?
nothing. the answer is: NOTHING. #txlege
it should be noted that there are a lot of the same women they are all worried about going through a medical abortion alone--though they put all women seeking medical abortions in that position themselves with their laws--but not going through a pregnancy alone. #txlege #HB5510
*I know you're having trouble with it today by adopting this line of "we're not criminalizing the woman! we're criminalizing those who help them!" we're not infants, dude. 10/11 #txlege #HB5510
education which would prevent more boy legislators from having BIG FEELINGS about women's bodies which they feel require them to pass laws controlling said women's bodies.I mean, boy, "no" means "no" when it comes to you all making medical decisions for us via statute, too. 9/11 #txlege #HB5510
if boys knew this, they could also be taught healthy ways of handling their emotions when they don't get to do what they want to another person's body. 8/11 #txlege #HB5510
if boys and girls knew this, it'd prevent them from becoming victims of sexual predators. you know... since we spend a whole lot of time worrying about that and not doing much to prevent it. 7/11 #txlege #HB5510
if girls knew they could make decisions over their own bodies and shouldn't be coerced into sex, that would prevent a bunch of unwanted pregnancies. 6/11 #txlege #HB5510
this is partly because our sex education curriculum is wholly insufficient to prevent it--and that also means it's not preventing the spread of STDs or giving good information about bodily autonomy. 5/11 #txlege #HB5510
this is partly because nothing has been done about the epidemic of youth pastors grooming and sexually abusing children--nah, blame the literate drag queens and teachers instead. 4/11 #txlege #HB5510
this is partly because y'all keep going after red herrings and in the process destroying the lives of people minding their own business. 3/11 #txlege #HB5510
I am glad you considered 12 year olds because you have a daughter near that age. but you seem to not be considering how the 12 year old is impregnated and how insufficient our laws are to prevent such circumstances.
not necessary, but if that's what it takes... 2/11 #txlege #HB5510
another thread for Jeff Leach because now he brought his daughter into this. a #txlege 🧵.
let's set aside the part where you don't need to bring your own daughter into this to consider women people and come back to it*. 1/11 #HB5510
please, remove your name from the bill and let Bryan scramble to find someone who doesn't have a problem with any form of men forcing themselves on women carry them. because...
I like your CJ work so I don't know why you are doing this to all of us. 16/16 #txlege #HB5510
