Texas Governor Greg Abbott Designates Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR as Terrorist and Criminal Organizations: “Protecting Our People Comes First.” American Media Group. 18 Nov 2025.
“It is incumbent upon the state of Texas, to make sure that [the Plan B pill] is readily available for those who are victims of sexual assault or survivors of sexual assault. The State of Texas pays for that, whether it be at a hospital, at a clinic, or for someone who gets a prescription because of it. And so not only is it should be readily available, but the state of Texas is going to pay for it to make sure that it is available for them. ...an alternative is to do what we can to assist and aid the victim, and that is to help get them medical assistance that they need and the care that they need, but also to know what their options are, to know that the state through our Alternatives to Abortion program provides living assistance, baby supplies, all kinds of things that can help them. Also, we've increased funding for prenatal and post-partum care." (27:00)
