WaPo Opinion | Why I violated Texas’s extreme abortion ban
“I acted because I had a duty of care to this patient,” writes Alan Braid, a practicing OB/GYN in Texas for 45 years.
Dr. Alan Braid writes:
”For me, it is 1972 all over again.
And that is why, on the morning of Sept. 6, I provided an abortion to a woman who, though still in her first trimester, was beyond the state’s new limit. I acted because I had a duty of care to this patient, as I do for all patients, and because she has a fundamental right to receive this care.”
