Texas Supreme Court upholds strict abortion ban, dismissing lawsuits filed by over 20 women.

The Texas Supreme Court has upheld the state's strict abortion ban, dismissing lawsuits filed by more than 20 women who claimed they were harmed by the law's restrictions. The court's decision leaves the ban in place, with its narrow medical exception. The case, which saw Selena Simmons-Duffin report for NPR on health policy, will continue to limit access to abortion services in Texas, with no immediate relief for those challenging the ruling.
