Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul is wading deeper into the fight over abortion rights in other states.

 

Raoul has joined a group of more than 20 attorneys general around the country who are filing a “friend of the court” brief in a legal challenge to abortion laws in Texas.

 

Raoul says in addition to putting up hurdles to obtaining an abortion in Texas, lawmakers there also want to prevent women in Texas from traveling to other states… like Illinois… to obtain abortion services. Raoul says Texas is trying to impose unconstitutional limits on interstate travel.
