Vince Perez Perfectly Describes The Republican State Of Texas

This bill gives more time to enforce control over over her body than she has to hold her rapist accountable. That is the cruelty and insanity of Republicanism in 2025. And it doesn't stop there. Male abusers, so long as they don't have a formal conviction on their record, will also be allowed to profit off their partner's pain and trauma if she receives an abortion pill. Most abuse is never reported, never charged, and never adjudicated. Those men are not barred and can also collect a check up to $100,000. (03:18–03:30)

CLAIM

Asserts that male abusers without a formal conviction can profit from their partner's trauma under the bill.
