Texas Abortions-late

The state of Texas now requires women who have abortions have to bury or cremate their unborn babies. Not sure how i feel about this. The governor says that he is "giving voice the unborn" while others are saying that he is trying to shame and financially burden multiple women. As Texas has tried to fight to ban abortion but got turned down every time, they ended up thinking of something else. Pro-choice advocates believe that the timing of the governors letter was very odd because Stephen Breyer wrote in the Whole Women's Health how the Texas law "has no significant health-related problems." Many women who end up getting abortions do not have enough money to pay for a burial at the same time. The cost of an abortion is $300-$950, the cost of a burial on average $2,000, and the cost of cremation $1,500-4,000, I'm not sure how many women will pay for this.
