SB33 bans the use of public funds for abortion-related travel.

The Senate passed SB33 on May 26, 2025, by a vote of 22 to 9. We have assigned pluses to the yeas because abortion is murder, and no person has a right to take the life of a preborn child, let alone force their neighbor to pay for it. Given that the care of human life—not its destruction—is the greatest responsibility of government, Texas ought to abolish abortion entirely, forbidding its every method and means of procurement. The right to life is the most fundamental, God-given, and “unalienable” right mentioned in the Declaration of Independence and secured by the Fifth and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
