Austin renews attack on pro-life centers

ADF, allies seek new court order after city’s decision to replace one bad law with another

AUSTIN, Texas — The city of Austin has exchanged one constitutionally problematic sign law that affects pro-life centers with another, prompting the Alliance Defense Fund and two pro-life organizations to seek a new emergency order against the law in federal court Wednesday. In November of last year, the city agreed to take a closer look at its law in the wake of a lawsuit filed on behalf of Austin LifeCare, a pregnancy resource center, but ADF attorneys explain that the new law is as bad as the one it replaced.
