Green Professor of Law, discussed a lawsuit in which five women claim that the uncertainty around medical emergency exemptions in Texas’s abortion laws exacerbated medical emergencies that put their lives, health and fertility in danger. “It’s particularly unusual for these women to bring these lawsuits in their own names and not use a pseudonym—and to really share personal details about their lives,” Hill said. |
