AG Healey ISSUES STATEMENT ON DOJ CHALLENGE OF TEXAS ABORTION BAN
BOSTON — Massachusetts
Attorney General Maura Healey today issued the following statement in response
to the U.S. Department of Justice’s challenge of Texas’ new restrictions on
abortion, which went into effect last week:
“I commend Attorney General Garland for
taking swift, decisive action in protecting access to safe, legal abortion in
Texas. It is not hyperbolic to say that lives hang in the balance while Texas’
abortion ban remains in effect. We cannot allow vulnerable patients to be
turned away from health centers, forced into pregnancy, or denied this
life-saving and life-changing care. Abortion is health care, and it is the key
to self-determination for millions of Americans. We cannot rest until all
people—especially Black, Latina, Indigenous, and low-income women—can access
the care they need.”
