REASONS FOR VOTE

Representative Hopper submitted the following reason for vote to be printed in the journal:

While I appreciate the stated intent of this bill, I have serious concerns about its language. Specifically, the phrase "substantial impairment of a major bodily function" is overly broad and subjective and could be used to justify abortions in scenarios that are not in line with our expectations. This bill will likely lead to a future scenario where more abortions are performed in Texas, and for this reason I voted no on SB 31.

Representative Pierson submitted the following reason for vote to be printed in the journal:

I firmly support and believe in the need to allow physicians to exercise reasonable medical judgment when providing the best care possible for pregnant women and preborn children. I also appreciate how this bill provides some clarity for providers who were being fed misinformation surrounding our current law.

However, with my background in health care administration, I have serious concerns about the language used in this bill—specifically the phrase "substantial impairment of a major bodily function" without specific diagnostic guidelines or criteria to accompany the qualifying diagnoses. In clinical practice, that phrase is broad and open to interpretation, creating a significant loophole that could be used to justify abortions in cases that may not align with the bill's stated intent.

I am concerned that the bill opens the door for the misuse of medical diagnostics—where certain conditions could be exaggerated or manipulated to meet the threshold of "substantial impairment," even when no such risk exists under normal, unaltered circumstances.

For these reasons, I voted no on SB 31. While I support the efforts along with intent of the legislation, I believe this will ultimately lead to the loss of more innocent lives.

SB 33 ON THIRD READING

SB 33, A bill to be entitled An Act relating to certain prohibited transactions and logistical support between a governmental entity and an abortion assistance entity or abortion provider for the procurement of an abortion or related services.

(a-3) If an order under this subtitle is rendered against a respondent who is a party to a suit affecting the parent-child relationship in which the applicant or a member of the applicant's family or household is also a party, the order is effective until the second anniversary of the date on which the final order in the suit is rendered by the court.

(a-4) If an order under this subtitle is rendered against a respondent who is charged with a criminal offense involving family violence under Title 5, Penal Code, or an offense under Section 25.11, Penal Code, the order is effective until the second anniversary of the date of the final disposition of the criminal case.

(c) If a person who is the subject of a protective order is confined or imprisoned on the date the protective order would expire under Subsection (a), [or] (a-1), (a-2), (a-3), or (a-4) or if the protective order would expire not later than the first anniversary of the date the person is released from confinement or imprisonment, the period for which the order is effective is extended, and the order expires on:

Amend SB 1318 (house committee report) as follows:

(2) On page 2, line 26, strike "and".

the contract or employment terminated; and

(5) On page 3, between lines 6 and 7, insert the following:

(d) Notwithstanding any other law, a covenant not to compete relating to the practice of medicine is void and unenforceable against a person licensed as a physician by the Texas Medical Board if the physician is involuntarily discharged from contract or employment without good cause. For purposes of this subsection, "good cause" means a reasonable basis for discharge of a physician from contract or employment that is directly related to the physician's conduct, including the physician's conduct on the job or otherwise, job performance, and contract or employment record.
