Texas’ abortion ban has created a standard of fear, jeopardizing care for pregnant Texans ... and more news



More than a year ago, The Dallas Morning News set out to explore how Texas’ overlapping abortion laws have altered the landscape of obstetric health care. Through more than 100 interviews with physicians and other health care professionals, researchers, advocates, legal experts, patients and family members, reporters documented deviations from the standard of care, as well as other unintended consequences. In other news, Dallas’ new inspector general, tasked with uncovering corruption and ensuring the city government complies with its code of ethics, is not an attorney, and his recent hiring by the City Council violates the city’s charter. In June, council members unanimously hired Timothy Menke, a former federal official who held a similar role in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; a group of teens in a car were shot at after police said they played ding, dong, ditch at a Frisco man’s house in July. 58-year old Damon Wolfe faces a felony aggravated assault charge; and America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders has been renewed for a third season and is slated for a 2026 return.
