It took three ER visits and 20 hours before a hospital admitted Nevaeh Crain, 18, as her condition worsened. Doctors insisted on two ultrasounds to confirm “fetal demise.” She’s one of at least two Texas women who died under the state’s abortion ban.

Hurting women is the whole goal with Republicans' abortion bans. This isn't just a tragedy, this is the intended outcome and what a bit under half the country wants the rest of the country to be like.

The cruelty is the point.
