Texans split on overturning Roe, support strong for 6-week ban in new abortion law, poll shows
DALLAS — Texans who favor the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade support banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy — consistent with the state’s new Senate Bill 8 restrictions — rather than 15 weeks, according to a Dallas Morning News-University of Texas at Tyler poll released Sunday.
The 15-week mark is used in the Mississippi ban now before the Supreme Court that many believe could be used to overturn Roe and the abortion rights it preserves.
