Plus emergency care. My grandpa was a super religious guy with 7 kids, but he was always firmly pro abortion rights because in the 30s his sister had something go wrong but they wouldn't terminate the pregnancy and she died of sepsis. Kind of like what happened to that woman in Ireland. They'd been begging the doctors to do something.

Sad, these are great schools, but I can see faculty leaving for other places where their rights are not restricted and where education is valued more.

Pro tip: if there's a community somewhere in Missouri or Texas that doesn't "value" "education," that doesn't actually affect WUSTL or Rice.

Pro-tip, if my daughter gets raped in MO or TX, the crazy as Eff leadership there is going to make getting an abortion ridiculously difficult.

A student in St Louis would just head over to Illinois for services. It’s like someone in DC going to VA to see a doctor.

And you think that a Republican legislature with a Republican government won’t pass a law criminalizing that, as well? The Texas law is enforced by vigilantes, not by the state. That precedent—which the Supreme Court just this morning said is FINE—is going to result in a wave of laws just like it. And there’s no doubt some enterprising Republican lawmaker will extend it to abortion services provided anywhere. People really need to wake up.

So as bad as a drive is emotionally, it’s now a flight and a hotel stay too?

+1 and, regardless of what I think, DD would not consider living in those states either, particularly because of the LGBTQ rights issue.

Yep...not looking at schools in any of these states.

Ditto. I will not travel to, let alone allow my kids to attend college in, these states. That would’ve been the case due to COVID behaviors and gun issues even before the Texas abortion law. I have daughters but would feel the same way if I had a son.

No chance. Texas is off the list for us. I don't want a bunch of vigilantes policing her reproductive choices, for starters.

She is going to need to come home and spend some time with her family. Also, she could let her friends know that her parents welcome guests and would be happy to drive them to and from any of the places in the DC Metro area they might wish to visit while here.

I would encourage my children never to step foot in that state.

Texas is 10000% off the list.
