Karl Rove says Texas' abortion law is 'too extremist' and will be 'a real problem for Republicans in the legislature'

Texas' ban on abortions after six weeks of pregnancy is too extreme and may haunt Republicans.

At the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin, a senior advisor and deputy chief of staff to a former president made comments.

Do you think Texas is too right wing? During an interview, the CEO of the Tribune asked a question.

Yes, I do." "I think it's going to be a real problem for Republicans in the legislature next year when they have to deal with it, because it's basically no abortion, no exceptions."

The Texas Tribune reported that some state lawmakers are in favor of giving an exception to the abortion ban in cases of rape.

On Saturday, while discussing the effects of the Supreme Court's decision, he mentioned that Kansas voters rejected an amendment that would have eliminated the right to an abortion.

The Supreme Court's ruling on abortion should be a state's right, according to the Tribune.
