Joe Pojman, executive director of the Texas Alliance for Life, said an important change that’s not getting enough attention is the increased funding that the Texas Legislature provided for expecting mothers in the last session, setting aside $100 million over the next two years to promote alternatives to abortion.
“Women dont need to go out of state to seek abortions. Texas has the resources to help them successfully give birth to the child, and keep the child if she wishes or place the child for adoption,” he said. “That is the goal of the state programs, and it’s also the goal of hundreds of nonprofit organizations.”
