Jasmine Crockett challenges Ted Cruz on Texas abortion laws during Senate campaign

Rep. Jasmine Crockett criticized Sen. Ted Cruz for avoiding questions about Texas's strict abortion laws during a recent interview. She emphasized that Cruz, not being a medical professional, should not dictate women's health choices. Crockett's comments followed the tragic death of a Texas teenager due to delayed medical treatment related to a miscarriage. She highlighted the real dangers women face under current GOP-backed abortion policies. Cruz has faced scrutiny for his stance on abortion, especially as he campaigns to retain his Senate seat. During a debate, he deflected questions about supporting exceptions for rape and incest, raising concerns about his position on women's health issues.
