Abortion Legislation

There has been a huge buzz on the abortion legislation recently passed, and The Daily Texan's article, "Texas House Committee Passes Abortion Legislation" does a great job of simply and clearly explaining exactly what this legislation encompasses. The article explains that the legislation voted on by the Texas House committee at 12:01 am Wednesday, July 3, 2013 would completely stop all abortions after 20 weeks, strengthen regulations put on abortion clinics across texas, and increase restrictions on abortion-inducing medications. The article then goes on to explain how various committee members feel about the piece of legislation. I think that this article is interesting and important to read because so many people are talking about this legislation, so I think it is important to actually know what it is about and not just make large blanket statements that are not even true about the subject.
