One way to fight anti-abortion laws is for citizen groups to file class action suits based on the laws being a violation of citizens' First Amendment rights to freedom of religion.

In addition, states that are imposing anti-abortion laws are also violating the Establishment Clause of the 1st Amendment, by attempting to establish a state religion based on their own "Christian" mythology. Amending or discarding the 1st Amendment would require a Constitutional Convention, and I'd think that even the religiously bigoted GOP hacks on SCOTUS might have a hard time overturning or ruling against the 1st Amendment if they find that lower courts are upholding the 1st Amendment to rule in favor of the plaintiffs . #Abortion #US #ReligiousBigotry #1stAmendment #FreedomOfReligion #EstablishmentClause #SCOTUS

I'm surprised that "Christian" Texans would want the Jewish 10 Commandments in their classrooms, especially since Texas Republicans encourage breaking commandments like "thou shalt not kill," "you shall have no other gods before me" (what, we can't worship Trump or make graven idols of him?!?), "thou shalt not bear false witness" (i.e., LIE), and "thou shalt not commit adultery." #Trump #Texas #ReligiousBigotry #GOP
