Another horrifying ProPublica report from Texas about the consequences for pregnant people in that state and elsewhere after the Dobbs ruling came down. Lizzie Presser and Kavitha Surana say:
"It took three ER visits and 20 hours before a hospital admitted Nevaeh Crain, 18, as her condition worsened. Doctors insisted on two ultrasounds to confirm 'fetal demise.' She’s one of at least two Texas women who died under the state’s abortion ban."

It took 20 hours and three ER visits before doctors admitted the pregnant 18-year-old to the hospital as her condition worsened. She’s one of at least two women who died under Texas’ abortion ban.

“'This is a major victory at SCOTUS [i.e., the refusal of the Supremes to hear a Biden administration appeal of the Texas abortion ban] that will protect Texas medical providers from being forced to violate State law,' said Attorney General Paxton, of the Supreme Court’s decision in October. 'No Texas doctor should be forced to violate his or her conscience or the law just to do their job.'”
