Kate Cox is a Dallas-area mother who found out that her fetus has trisomy 18, a genetic condition that can cause stillbirth or death of a newborn, and puts her fertility at risk. She is currently 20 weeks pregnant. While Texas prohibits almost all abortions, Kate Cox was granted an emergency order that would allow her to get the abortion. Texas attorney general Ken Paxton has said he will sue the doctor who intends to perform the abortion, Dr. Damla Karsan.

"Due to the ongoing deterioration of Ms. Cox’s health condition ... Ms. Cox is now forced to seek medical care outside of Texas," Molly Duane, senior staff attorney at the Center for Reproductive Rights, which is representing Cox, said in a court filing Monday.

@KevinBlaw I’ll resolve yes when its confirmed that she got the procedure.

@vlasp I’m cashing out in that case since we will never have access to her medical file.

@KevinBlaw Not necessarily looking for her medical file, but a statement from her or someone representing her would be enough. I can also resolve Yes in a week if we hear nothing about complications or the procedure not going through.

predictedYES

Every woman in TX should file these petitions and overwhelm the Texas SC. I think that she will get an abortion, but will NOT get one in the state of texas.

What a massive cunt wow

This obviously resolves yes if she travels to a different state to get an abortion, right?
