Women seeking an abortion would have to first get an ultrasound under a measure approved on Thursday by the Texas House of Representatives.
The proposal, the first significant bill considered by the House this year, was designated by Republican Governor Rick Perry as an emergency priority. A similar measure has already been approved by the state Senate.An emergency priority, Governor? Your state has a $30 billion dollar deficit and forcing women seeking an abortion to get an ultrasound is an emergency priority? Is the next emergency priority new tetherballs for playgrounds or did you already get to that one?
