The 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld some of the key provisions to Texas' anti-abortion law. Apparently, a large number of abortion clinics will close down as a result. This is excellent news, though it is also likely very short-term, even assuming that this ruling is confirmed by the Supreme Court. The reason why it is so short term is that it's only a matter of time until a number of newer abortion mills are opened which meet the current requirements.
And this assumes, furthermore, that Texas doesn't have a political shift from the moderately pro-abortion position of allowing abortion for up to 20 weeks to a more pro-abortion position of removing these few and frankly very weak restrictions.
