Ep. 249 What the Doctors Order

Texas Impact's Weekly Witness

This week we welcome Dr. Charlie Brown, Board Member with the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists to talk about key reforms to Texas’ ban on abortions that are necessary to better define steps that can legally be taken to protect the lives of Texas moms. Doctors need a better legal definition, and so far the Legislature has been unwilling to even have that conversation. We are recording with just over two weeks remaining in the legislative session and we hope listeners will buckle up for the last two weeks, celebrate the work you have done together, and start preparing for conversations we will need to have post-session.
