Abortion-inducing drugs in Texas will now be harder to obtain after the state's Republican governor recently signed restrictive legislation into law, weeks after another strict abortion law went into effect in the state.

Senate Bill 4, signed into law by Gov. Greg Abbott on Friday, prohibits a person"from providing an abortion‑inducing drug to a pregnant woman without satisfying the applicable informed consent requirements for abortions." The law requires physicians providing abortion drugs to comply with certain physician reporting requirements. Anyone who"intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly violates" the bill faces a state jail felony offense.
