    I’m not 100% on this, but doesn’t Texas have a bounty law paying people to turn in accomplices to abortion?

    If it’s true, not only is she not safe in Texas, she will literally be hunted for a paycheck.

      They do, but those laws have failed in every situation I’ve read.

      Apparently Oklahoma deemed their bounty law unconstitutional.

      In Texas, a case got thrown out because the plaintiff must show that they’ve been harmed by the actions of the defendant. Some random jackass can’t sue for an abortion that doesn’t impact them in any way, as much as the Texas legislature would like that to be the case.
