> So if a Texas resident flies to a nearby state, getting an abortion safely and legally and then they can come back home, right? Sure, the cost of flying would deter some people
The cost and time involved will not just deter a lot of people, it will make this entirely impossible for a lot of the state's poorest resident, it's likely two days bare minimum and being out thousands, that's unlikely to be an option for somebody who's working minimum wages.
Which is pretty much the point, the richer ones never had any issue accessing such services when they wanted to.
