Everything You Need to Know About the Texas Abortion Ban

Back in May, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed a bill that would ban abortions after six weeks beginning September 1. It has now officially been made into a law. While the Texas law does offer exceptions for medical emergencies, this ban on abortion includes pregnancies that are the result of incest and/or rape.
