Understanding the impact of
PROP A
AKA “The Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn” Ordinance
Deceptive in Nature
The ordinance does not ban abortions. It only encourages neighbors to surveil and sue anyone they suspect of “aiding and abetting” an abortion.
Zero proof is required to file a lawsuit. Any Amarillo citizen under suspicion could be sued for a minimum of $10,000 and attorneys’ fees.
