San Antonio Sued by Texas AntiAbortion Groups for Creating a Reproductive Health Fund
"In September, the San Antonio City Council passed a record $3.7 billion budget, which included approval of $500,000 for a reproductive health fund. The fund is intended to help cover out-of-state travel for abortion patients, but could also cover things like STD testing and health training, according to Axios. The budget took effect October 1 and, on Tuesday, a bunch of anti-abortion groups sued the city, its mayor, and its city manager, to block the fund.
The lawsuit was submitted by Jonathan Mitchell (the architect of Texas’ six-week abortion ban and bounty hunter scheme) and aims to prevent groups like Buckle Bunnies (an abortion fund that helps people find out-of-state abortion care and funds practical support options), legal group Jane’s Due Process (who work with minors to obtain abortion care), and Sueños Sin Fronteras (a group that helps immigrants obtain abortion care) from getting funding. Texas Right to Life, San Antonio Family Association, and Texas Leadership Coalition are among some of the groups suing."
