Attorney General-elect Nathan Johnson says he won’t sue out-of-state doctors who mail abortion pills to Texas

Nathan Johnson, who will soon take over as Texas Attorney General, has announced he won’t pursue legal action against out-of-state doctors who send abortion pills to Texas residents, a move that could significantly improve access to abortion services in the state. His predecessor, Ken Paxton, has aggressively sued these doctors, arguing they’re violating state law, but critics claim these actions have made patients wary of seeking abortion pills. This shift could mark a substantial change in how Texas handles abortion access, potentially easing the state’s strict post-Roe landscape.
