The law would have limited doctors from performing abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy unless the health of the mother is threatened or the fetus cannot be saved. It would have also required physicians to perform abortions in an ambulatory surgical center — a measure for which only five out of the 42 existent abortion clinics in Texas qualify, according to the Associated Press.
