得克萨斯州立法者投票表决一项法案, 澄清该州严格禁止堕胎的医疗例外情况。 Texas lawmakers vote on a bill to clarify medical exceptions in the state's strict abortion ban.

得克萨斯州计划对一项法案进行投票表决,该法案旨在澄清该州近乎完全禁止堕胎的医学例外。 A vote is scheduled in Texas on a bill that aims to clarify medical exceptions under the state's near-total abortion ban. 该立法有两党的支持,规定医生在医疗紧急情况下进行堕胎时不会面临刑事指控,导致重大身体损伤或死亡。 The legislation, which has bipartisan support, specifies that doctors won't face criminal charges when performing an abortion in a medical emergency causing major bodily impairment or death. 它不扩大例外范围,以包括强奸或乱伦案件。 It does not broaden exceptions to include cases of rape or incest. 如果得到得克萨斯众议院的批准,该法案可以向格雷格·阿博特州长提出。 If approved by the Texas House, the bill could advance to Governor Greg Abbott. 这一努力与至少其他9个有限制性堕胎法的州正在寻求的类似澄清相一致。 This effort aligns with similar clarifications being sought in at least nine other states with restrictive abortion laws.
