About this sermon
In Texas, an unprecedented challenge to the state law is banning most abortions. A judge says a woman who is 20 weeks pregnant can have an abortion. Doctors say the baby has a fatal diagnosis. Texas officials disagree and are likely to appeal the ruling. Texas State Director for the pro-life Human Coalition, Chelsey Youman, joins to share her reaction to the judge's decision and what comes next. The pregnant woman, a 31 year old mother of 2, says her baby has a high risk of Trisomy 18, which can result in a miscarriage. Youman discusses what more we know about her health and that of the baby. She tells us how she would respond to those who say going forward with the birth would put the mother and child in jeopardy. The lawsuit is believed to be the first of its kind since the overturning of Roe v Wade last year. There are 12 states, including Texas, with near-total bans on abortion since the overturning of Roe. Youman fills us in on whether she thinks we might see lawsuits similar to this one in other states. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
