Texas GOP Considers Death Penalty for Abortion Patients

Proposed platform aims to classify abortion as homicide, reflecting a hardline shift in the party's stance.

  • The Texas Republican Party's proposed platform includes the death penalty for abortion patients and providers.
  • The platform seeks to solidify fetal personhood ideology, equating abortion with murder.
  • Other extreme measures include banning gender-affirming care and teaching Christianity in public schools.
  • Similar legislative efforts in other states have been defeated, even by some Republicans.
  • The proposal underscores the increasingly radical direction of Texas GOP policies.
