Texas Politics

We want to answer your questions about abortion access in Texas

A leaked opinion draft from the Supreme Court reported by Politico indicates that the court could overturn Roe v. Wade. This would mark a significant shift in U.S. policy, and would eliminate almost all legal abortion access in Texas.

We want to hear your questions. About Roe v. Wade, about Texas’ laws, and about what abortion looks like in the state. We’ll turn to doctors, researchers, lawyers, and other experts who have studied access to abortion in the state and who are beginning to hypothesize what the future might look like.

But we also want to hear your stories, particularly if you’ve had an abortion in the past or if you’ve considered having an abortion. For some people who choose to end a pregnancy, it can be a complicated decision or a complicated process once they’ve made that decision. We want to understand how you thought through your decision, and try and bring some nuance to a deeply polarized conversation.

We will not publish your name or your information without your permission.
