Judge Issues Narrow Temporary Restraining Order In Fetal Heartbeat Law

A Texas judge is issuing a narrow temporary restraining order over the state's new fetal heartbeat law. The judge ruled Texas Right to Life and its legislative director are temporarily banned from filing civil suits against three people over the Texas Heartbeat Act. The pro-life group says today's ruling won't stop them from suing other abortion providers and promise the law still goes into effect at midnight. The U.S. Supreme Court has been asked to weigh in on the law, which allows civil suits against groups if they perform abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected.
