Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union of Texas have filed a lawsuit against the City of Lubbock over the 'Sanctuary City for the Unborn' ordinance.

Thursday, April 1 is the deadline to register to vote in the upcoming election. Lubbock voters will decide whether or not to pass an ordinance which would ban abortions in Lubbock
The night of Tuesday, December 15th, the Lubbock City Council set the date for a special election that will decide whether or not to outlaw abortions within city limits.
Mayor Dan Pope and members of the city council cite conflict with Supreme Court ruling, and potential legal issues, in rejecting proposed ordinance to ban abortions in Lubbock.
Over 5,000 signatures have been submitted by petition organizers in support of an ordinance to make Lubbock a "sanctuary city for the unborn," making abortions illegal within the city.
