This episode is going to be A DOOOOOOOOZY. We’re talking about a story that centers in Texas (of course) featuring a baby, who was born with a severe heart defect, that drew the attention of anti-abortion activists as well as the Texas attorney general after the intended parents wanted the surrogate mother to have an abortion. I think there is a good likelihood that this case will rise to the Supreme Court and influence future abortion precedent — so, as your local abortion advocates, we thought it was valuable to fill you in.
