With the Lone Star State's "heartbeat" abortion law poised to take effect September 1, the group Texas Right to Life has set up a website urging people to anonymously turn in alleged violators.
The group's prolifewhistleblower.com site includes an anonymous form to report people who purportedly breach the controversial measure, considered one of the country's most restrictive anti-abortion laws.
The law limits legal access to abortions to two weeks after a missed menstrual cycle, a time when many women don't yet know they're pregnant. What's more, it lets private citizens sue abortion providers and others who help a woman obtain an abortion after six weeks.
As Texas waits for the fate of the law to play out in court, Texas Right to Life's tip site has already attracted the interest of online activists who recommended that people concerned about reproductive rights share fake names to disrupt the data collection.

OP
It would be really sad if they got tipoffs on all the GOP legislature members.

Get a list of republican women. Lots of ways to do so. Add their real names to the list of tips.

The group will take the info, report it themselves, and then pocket the $10,000.

The FBI can meta data any calls, let the sites bail pot build up, then RICO TX Repubs.
