Here’s something I’ve never understood.

“This restriction clearly violates Texas women’s constitutional rights by drastically reducing access to safe and legal abortion statewide.”

So, if a Texas woman aborts a female baby, hasn’t that woman then violated the constitutional rights of that female baby by reducing its access to safe and legal abortions?

Apparently these clinics could not be disinfected and brought up to cleanliness standards.

Don’t know if that was the reason they couldn’t get admitting privileges or not.
Some may have been in locations more than 30 miles distance from a hospital.

snip

Only about 15 of 32 hospitals in the state have accepted doctors to perform the
procedure; some with religious affiliations have turned down the requests, AP reported.

Other applications have been put on hold, pending checks to see if doctors meet the
residential requirements. Some mandate physicians live within a certain
radius, for example.

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans’ decision is only temporary. A
complete hearing on the matter will likely go forward in January, AP said.
But in the meantime, a dozen abortion providers will have to stop performing
the procedure, given their inability to comply with the portions of the
law the appeals court ruled could take effect immediately.

I was being over-the-top. The left did oppose even the hygiene standards though.
