Women Sue Texas Over Vague Abortion Law That Put Their Lives in Danger

Eight more women joined a lawsuit against Texas arguing the state's abortion bans denied them necessary medical care and put their lives at risk.
The lawsuit alleges Texas' abortion laws caused confusion and fear among doctors, delaying care for women with pregnancy complications.
One woman was forced to give birth to a stillborn son after being detained in a hospital for five days.
The lawsuit challenges Texas' overlapping abortion bans and asks a judge to clarify when abortions are permitted in medical emergencies.
The case could serve as a model for other states with strict abortion laws as a way to challenge them in court.
