"Texas Right to Life has heard stories like this one and says it’s all a big “misunderstanding.” The group says doctors have been misinformed, and that while the Texas anti-abortion law, known as SB 8, doesn’t define the word “abortion,” another Texas statute says “an act is not an abortion if the act is done with the intent to remove a dead, unborn child whose death was caused by” a miscarriage. Doctors say they do understand the law - but that it’s not enough to protect them."
