there is now now a "beating heart," in accordance with Texas SB8, a woman or pregnant child is not legally able to have an a******n after about the 6th week of gestation.
So if they deliver a child of obviously different racial features from the rest of the family, essentially confirming the identity of the biologic father, the rapist ....
Or a single Mom who chose to be a hero kept her rapebaby and applied for State assistance for housing and SNAP/WIC benefits had to report on the paternity so they can CONTACT THE DNA DONOR to demand child support, who can then request shared custody and visitation rights at the jail where they might be in incarcerated for pleading guilty to a lessor charge. Or, because she explored giving up the child for adoption, the Rapebabydaddy is contacted about relinquishing his parental rights, and instead, demands FULL CUSTODY.
Or when the rapebaby is five years old, the biologic father gets out of prison after pleading to a lesser charge and the courts rule your spouse must share custody of the child with the mother's rapist, (because he wasn't convicted of rape) and with you by default, unless you divorce your spouse or sever ties with the minor child who mothered this blessing, pay child support for possibly all the children born during your marriage, and see ALL your children raised by their next new Stepdad, on your dime.
You might consider h*****g in there. In some States the Rapebabydaddy might pay minimal child support if he can get a job with a felony conviction...
My point here is to heighten the concern over and elucidate the v****g implications of the Texas SB8's implications for any spouse who has a fertile spouse (lesbian marriages have two!) AND/OR is a responsible parent of a fertile post pubescent minor, that could ever possibly be impregnated by a rapist. Even if that number is 1, it matters to that one v**er, and maybe the spouse, the minor parent, the other children, and friends and community, and extended family, the country at large, so I dunno, just putting it out there....
I am sure v**ers will be affected by concern over many issues, but perhaps some migbt be swayed due to concern over this "a******n bill" AS WELL AS spurred to consider, alternatively, an increased motivation to address the governor's newfound interest in sorting out the rape problem and perhaps incidentally its implications on child custody and support obligations.

One forward thinking State has an innovative approach to this complex issue. I found it amusing and thought to seek opinions regarding the new ILLINOIS proposal and how it meshes with the new concentraton in Texas on eliminating rape crimes.
