Planned Parenthood Targeted Pro-Life Democrat with Racial Slur, Now His Bill is Headed to Governor's Desk
A Texas law signed by Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) recently went into effect which restricts abortions once a fetal heartbeat is detected, which is at around six weeks. Now, a bill restricting chemical abortion, also known as medication abortion, to seven rather than 10 weeks is headed to the governor's desk. The bill, SB 4, was sponsored by state Sen. Eddie Lucio, Jr., who is a pro-life Democrat.
Throughout the 2020 primary and runoff primary, Planned Parenthood Texas Votes referred to Lucio as "Sucio Lucio" when calling for a primary opponent to oust him. The term "sucio" is considered to be a slur and derogatory against Mexicans.
While the abortion group was criticized for using such a term, social media posts with such language remain.
