Five San Antonio council members urge city to allocate funds for abortion travel
Five members of San Antonio City Council are urging the city find another way to fund abortion travel after its Reproductive Justice Fund was approved without money for that purpose — one of its original objectives. Council members Melissa Cabello Havrda (D6), Sukh Kaur (D1), Jalen McKee-Rodriguez (D2), Phyllis Viagran (D3) and Teri Castillo (D5) submitted a memo to the the city calling for a new Request for Proposals (RFP) to provide logistical support for people seeking out-of-state abortion care. San Antonio's Reproductive Justice Fund passed last week on a 9-0 vote with District 10's Marc Whyte, council's most conservative member, abstaining.
