After months of fierce opposition from pro-choice activists and the medical community, state health officials in Texas who have had their sights set on punishing women that didn't carry their pregnancies to term after failing to make abortions more costly, as well as physically and mentally draining earlier this year, have finally succeeded.

The mission, so it lays out, is for women to mail their used hygiene products from their last menstrual cycles straight to Republican Gov. Gregg Abbott's office to check their "fertilized status."

Ele Chupik, who has worked in an abortion clinic for two years, posted the call to arms and has received almost 4,500 shares and a lot of attention.

"The majority of reactions have been positivelikes, loves, laughs, anger at the rule, surprise, questionsand I have personally only seen one negative reaction on my thread," Chupik told the Daily Dot.

The state of Texas will prohibit hospitals and abortion clinics from disposing of fetal remains in sanitary landfills and require cremation or burial of all remains, which could cost anyone getting the procedure up to an extra $2,000.

Considering women lose about 20 eggs during their monthly menstrual cycle, it looks like Abbott might need to bring qualified backup when checking the fertilized status of the remains in these women's underpants.

It seems obvious that the bill will be challenged before it goes into law, but Governor Greg Abbott is getting a sneak peak into what his future mailbox is going to look (and feel) like until he stops trying to impose his opinions on his constituents.
