By Bill Bumpas, OneNewsNow - Gov. Greg Abbott signed the law in June that bans a second-trimester abortion procedure known as dilation and evacuation... Pro-abortion groups sued Texas over the new law and a trial was held this fall… "We feel like what the legislature did is very similar to what happened at the federal level banning partial-birth abortions," Paxton says of the new law. "And so we feel very confident that on appeal, we'll be successful."
