Texas authorities have delivered cease-and-desist letters to groups and organizations that are shipping the deadly abortion pills into the state.
A report at Live Action News explains the letters are from the office of Attorney General Ken Paxton, and targeted three “radical organizations.”
The state demands include an “immediate end to the unlawful advertising, sale, and shipment of abortion-inducing drugs into the State of Texas.”
The warnings went to Plan C, Her Safe Habor, and California doctor Remy Coeytaux, who have been cited as shipping agents for the pills.
On social media, Paxton explained, Texas will not “tolerate the murdering of innocent life through illegal drug trafficking.”
There’s a law in Texas, as well as the federal Comstock law, addressing the shipment of deadly drugs into the state.
The AG’s letters explain that “performing, inducing, or attempting an abortion is prohibited in the State of Texas….”
Further, it informs the abortion cartel players that the federal Comstock Act of 1873 bars the carriage in interstate commerce of “any drug, medicine, article, or thing designed, adapted or intended for producing abortion.”
Paxton said, “This legal action follows two tragic cases in Texas in which radical abortion activists and organizations facilitated men illegally purchasing abortion-inducing drugs.”
In one recent case a wrongful death lawsuit was filed against a virtual abortion pill business, accusing them of a forced chemical abortion that killed a child of a Texas woman against her will.
Further, Coeytaux is warned, “You have been named in a recently filed lawsuit as having shipped abortion pills into the State of Texas via your affiliation with Aid Access. … In Rodriguez v. Coeytaux, the plaintiff alleges that the abortion pills which caused the death of two preborn children were obtained from Aid Access via an order prescribed by you…. This conduct violates multiple state and federal laws.”
“Texas also prohibits false, misleading, or deceptive trade practices under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA), Tex. Bus. & Comm. Code § 17.46,” the AG’s cease-and-desist letter to Plan C said.”
Civil penalties for violations can reach up to $100,000 per violation.
The letter warns a refusal to comply could mean a formal investigation and “injunctive relief.”
