President Trump has taken credit for a Supreme Court decision not to block the recent pro-life law in Texas. During an interview this weekend, the 45th president said Texas’s law to restrict abortion could change and evolve going forward, but would continue to protect the lives of unborn babies.
Last week, Texas banned most abortions after a fetal heartbeat was detected at about six weeks and the Supreme Court did not act on a request to block that law. Trump praised the decision by the Supreme Court and added the justices have been doing a better job now than before he took office.
“We do have a Supreme Court that’s a lot different than it was. Before, it was acting very strangely and I think probably not in the interests of our country,” he stated. “We’re studying the ruling and we’re studying also what they’ve done in Texas, but we have great confidence in the governor, the attorney general and the lieutenant governor.”
The Supreme Court voted 5-4 to uphold Texas’ RIGHT to defend innocent life in the womb. Three of those votes were from Justices nominated by President Trump. THANK YOU President Trump for selecting Supreme Court Justices that defend LIFE!

Trump went on to say he’ll soon make a major announcement to bring both sides together in the latest pro-life debate.
