According to a latest report, one-third of the Texas abortion clinics are closed after the U. S. Supreme Court refused to interfere in an ongoing legal dispute. These clinics are closed due to the birth of a tough new law, which restricts women to get aborted in case of unwanted pregnancies.

The closure of the clinics is going to be practiced as the court declines to intervene in the passing of this strict law that Planned Parenthood claims unconstitutionally restricts women's rights.

According to sources, almost 12 Texas abortion clinics have been closed from the month of October. These clinics closed after three-judge panel of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals permitted the law to come into effect.

According to sources, not even 20 clinics were able to follow the new standards. Also many women were forced to travel hundreds of miles to get their child aborted.

The sources also claim that all the basic facilities were only available in the metropolitan areas. It was also said by the sources that none of the facilities were available in the Rio Grande Valley along the border of Mexico.

Republican Gov. Rick Perry praised the Supreme Court action and said, "This is good news both for the unborn and for the women of Texas, who are now better protected from shoddy abortion providers operating in dangerous conditions".
