Texas senator dons pink tennis shoes for 13-hour filibuster to block bill that
could eliminate 90% of the state's abortion clinics
Austin - Wearing pink tennis shoes to prepare for nearly 13 consecutive hours
of standing, a Democratic Texas state senator on Tuesday began a one-woman
filibuster to block a GOP-led effort that would impose stringent new abortion
restrictions across the nation's second-most populous state.
Sen. Wendy Davis of Fort Worth began the filibuster at 11:18 a.m. CDT Tuesday.
To derail a vote in the GOP-dominated Senate, she must keep speaking on the
bill until midnight - the deadline for the end of the 30-day special session.
