Texas abortion rights rally
Attendees hold up signs during a Texas Rally for Abortion Rights at Discovery Green in Houston, Texas.
  • A man is suing his ex-wife's friends for $3 million, saying they helped her get an abortion.
  • The lawsuit included texts in which the women discussed abortion pills, which are banned in Texas.
  • Lawyers say it could have a chilling effect on speech as the women have been targeted over their texts.

In a first-of-its-kind case since Roe v. Wade was overturned and abortion was outlawed in Texas, a man filed a lawsuit against his ex-wife's friends, accusing them of helping her end her pregnancy.
