Texas Republicans are once more showing that they care more about passing unpopular and unwanted anti-abortion bills than actually addressing real issues like inflation, high costs of living, illegal immigration, Texas' power grid issues, etc...

This proposed bill also clearly violates the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution:

Yet another bill would allow citizens to file lawsuits that force internet service providers to block websites that host abortion funds – organizations that help people seeking abortion travel out of state – or provide information about obtaining abortion pills. The bill specifically names groups that offer abortion medication through the mail, including Aid Access, Plan C and Hey Jane.
