(Life News)—Cities like Austin and San Antonio dedicated taxpayer money to send pregnant women to other states for abortions. However, starting in September, a new Pro-Life law in Texas will ban them from using public funds to pay for abortion travel.
State lawmakers recently passed the Stop Tax-Funded Abortion Travel Act (Senate Bill 33) by Senator Donna Campbell, M.D. (R–New Braunfels) and sponsored by Representative Candy Noble (R–Lucas).
The new policy will block cities from hiding pro-abortion programs behind vague terms like “logistical support.”
This fight began in 2019 when Texas officials banned cities from funding abortion providers like Planned Parenthood. However, the City of Austin quickly found a way around that. They started giving tax dollars to abortion travel organizations instead of funding the abortion clinics directly. City council members claimed they weren’t breaking the law because they weren’t paying for the actual abortion procedure. But covering the travel costs still harms preborn babies, mothers, and taxpayers.
Local governments set aside money to pay for flights, hotel rooms, food, and other expenses to help Texas women—including young girls—kill their children out-of-state, in places like New Mexico, Colorado, and Kansas.

Greasy Gavin Newsom has a net worth of about $20, and we should sue him for at least twice this much for his mismanagement of California state funds and for putting us in financial hole and creating a deficit of around $21 billion. He has allocated $12 billion dollars for illegal aliens while military vets and American citizens are sleeping on the streets and can’t afford health care. Let’s hold this creep personally financially responsible and take him to court!
