Texas bill aims to classify abortion drugs as controlled substances, sparking health safety concerns.

Texas Rep. Pat Curry introduced House Bill 1339 to classify abortion drugs as controlled substances, similar to a Louisiana law. Critics say this has led to confusion and delays in treating gynecological conditions, like obstetric hemorrhages, in Louisiana. Supporters argue the bill will prevent misuse of these drugs to circumvent the state's near-total abortion ban, while critics fear it could endanger patient health.
