Overview
- Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said the settlement ends the city’s $100,000 allocation intended to cover travel for out-of-state abortions.
- After SB 33 became law in September, San Antonio told the court it would not use the fund for travel, and the 15th Court of Appeals dismissed the case on Oct. 9.
- SB 33 prohibits public funding for abortion-related logistical support and enables private civil enforcement, prompting cities to wind down such programs.
- In April 2025, San Antonio added $100,000 to its 2023 Reproductive Justice Fund, but a temporary injunction blocked disbursement after Paxton sued.
- Other uses of the city’s fund, such as emergency contraception, STI services, and prenatal transportation, remain uncertain under the new legal landscape.
