Calls and emails are urgently needed to members of the Texas Senate and House to ask them to support the Trigger Ban, SB 2160 and HB 2350, to completely ban abortion. Your immediate call or email could make a huge difference. (See samples below.)

This critically needed bill is at risk of dying unless enough calls and emails are sent to the members of the legislature..

Please urge your Texas state senator and representative to support SB 2160 and HB 2350. Your immediate call or email could make a huge difference. (See samples below.)

The Trigger Ban restores protection to unborn children from abortion, beginning at fertilization, when and to the extent that the Supreme Court reverses Roe v. Wade.

Five states have passed trigger bans, and at least four are considering passing similar laws.

BACKGROUND

• The Trigger Ban on abortion (SB 2160 and HB 2350) is the top priorities for major pro-life organizations, including Texas Alliance for Life, the Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops, and Texans for Life.
• SB 2160 is authored by Sen. Angela Paxton (R-McKinney). The House version HB 2350 is authored by State Rep. Giovanni Capriglione (R-Southlake). This bill will restore protection to unborn children, beginning at fertilization, by banning abortion when and to the extent that the Supreme Court reverses Roe v. Wade. It will be triggered by that event.
• Five states have passed trigger bans: Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Dakota, and South Dakota. In addition to Texas, three other states are considering passing trigger bans: Missouri, Oklahoma, and Tennessee.
• The House Judiciary and Civil Justice Committee considered HB 2350 at a hearing on Monday, April 1. The testimony of Texas Alliance for Life’s Special Counsel Paul Linton is HERE.
