Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has brought felony charges against eight people linked to a midwife accused of performing abortions in violation of Texas state law. In a statement, Paxton called the eight a “cabal of abortion-loving radicals” and “fake doctors.” This comes after Houston midwife Maria Rojas became the first person criminally charged under Texas’s new laws outlawing virtually all abortions. In response, Rojas’s lawyer told CNN, “[Paxton] heartlessly shut down several clinics that provided lawful, affordable services to families around Houston, most of whom were low-income, uninsured immigrants with few options for health care.”
