Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued the city of Austin over a fund that helped residents pay for travel to get abortions in other states.
This marked Paxton's second lawsuit on the city, after the city's authorities set aside $400,000 in the 2024-2025 budget to help residents with travel expenses, like airfare, gas, hotels, child care, and food, when traveling out-of-state for an abortion after Texas banned almost all abortions in the summer of 2022.
