A bill that would allow Texas residents to sue out-of-state abortion pill providers for up to $100,000 has been sent to the governor. It’s the first legislation of its kind in any state. Supporters hail it as a tool to stop medication abortions, which remain available despite being illegal in Texas. Abortion rights groups deride it as a “bounty hunter bill” that would encourage private citizens to engage in a form of legalized vigilante justice. Lawmakers agreed to cap the award for most people at $10,000, with the other $90,000 to go to charity. If the law is signed, it’s likely to face legal challenges.
