“Women and individuals who are seeking access to abortion need to know that their elected officials are standing by them,” said Councilwoman Teri Castillo, who drafted the resolution.
Rose Johnson, 4, looks over a press conference hosted by City Councilwoman Teri Castillo , during which she and other council members proposed a resolution condemning Texas' abortion ban and recommending that no city funds be used to investigate criminal charges related to the ban.
The resolution cannot prevent local enforcement from investigating criminal cases of abortion, Castillo acknowledged, because the council cannot tell police departments how or whether to investigate criminal cases, according to the city’s charter.
