The veteran U.S. senator supports striking down Roe v. Wade and leaving the question of abortion to the states.
Senator John Cornyn joins U.S. Representative Eddie Bernice Johnson during a press conference outside an electrical substation to announce their bipartisan legislation to help weatherize Texas’s energy grid in Dallas on Thursday, April8, 2021. The POWER ON Act aims to prevent a future severe storm, like the one Texas saw in February, from crippling our electrical grid and leaving countless Texans without electricity for days on end.
“I would permit those exceptions, but I understand others have strongly held feelings to the contrary,” Cornyn said during a recording ofCornyn, who is against abortion, stressed that he respects the right of the Legislature to pass abortion-related laws. And he supports the view that Roe vs. Wade should be scrapped. Earlier this month a leaked draft opinion foreshadowed that the U.S. Supreme Court is poised to strike down the law, which in 1973 legalized abortions.
DNA Exoneree Johnny Pinchback visits with United States Senator John Cornyn of Texas before a roundtable discussion about the Justice for All Reauthorization Act at the University of North Texas Health Science Center Medical Education & Training Building in Fort Worth, January 25, 2022. Pinchback was released from jail in 2011 after spending 27 years for two counts of Aggravated Sexual Assault. He was cleared through DNA testing.
“This is a very sensitive issue and one that has to be decided by the Texas Legislature,” Cornyn said. “That’s not going to be a determination that the federal government will make, if this decision holds up.”The law passed in 2021 would kick in 30 days after the court’s ruling and make those who preform or help provide an abortion subject to a felony. The only exception in that law is if there is risk for the patient’s life or “substantial impairment of major bodily function.
He always does this and the “cocaine and orgies” Party does not like it. He will get the Rino treatment or be Cawthorned.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Too little too late-
Tragic event happens and then add murdering a baby to the list that the woman has to deal with?
Nobody should decide for a body except the owner of the body. End of story.
You guys are psychos. You have 6 weeks or a heartbeat. If you can't make it in time, you can hop on a cheap Spirit Airlines flight to California, give birth to the baby, then have the Dr kill it while it's still attached by the umbilical cord. It's legal there.

He means exceptions for rape incest or if you are rich and have an affair with an intern.
lol. who wrote this? should be let go.
Don’t believe him.
I LITERALLY wrote this assfuck multiple times 2008-2014 as a constituent with the same bullshit answer that abortion was never ok before I gave up on his ass. He does NOT really believe this; he is afraid of being voted out.
As he moves to the middle (ish) after reading the room. A Republican survivalist.
So a woman has to have a tragic event happen to them to have access to a medical procedure? How kind. ProChoice
He should support staying the hell out of women's lives and decisions.
oh wow how brave of him to say that with the far right wingers now🤦🏻♂️
John Cornyn is a federal legislator, not a state legislator. I couldn't give less of a shit what he thinks. Ask Abbott and Texas congressmembers.
Who doesn’t? A very very minute percentage even come down to that, but almost everyone agrees.
