Some states really do implement some stupid things into law. Texas has been under fire lately after recently passing a law that bans abortions. According to NBC News, this new law bans an abortion as early as six weeks into pregnancy. The law, known as Senate Bill 8, just went into effect last week after the Supreme Court didn't act to block it. This is just crazy. If you know, pregnancy is measured from the first day of the last menstrual cycle, which is about two weeks before conception. That means victims of sexual assault have no more have no more than four weeks to obtain abortions under the new law, according to the site. Now of course this is causing an uproar because many are trying to figure out how men can tell a woman what to do with her body. Stay out of a woman's uterus! You are basically intruding on people's privacy. Since the ruling, the Biden administration and congressional Democrats said they will work on this crazy law because it violates the Constitution. President Biden has pledged to "protect and defend" abortion rights and vowed a governmentwide response. Meanwhile, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott defended the state's abortion law Tuesday, saying it doesn't force victims of rape to give birth and vowing to "eliminate all rapists." As if this makes things better. You are still telling women what to do with their bodies. Eliminate that!
