Texas abortion ban is back, for now. It's 'chaos' for patients, advocates say.

Texas' restrictive abortion law is again in effect — for now — after a Friday order. It's the latest twist in a dizzying legal saga that advocates say is having "devastating effects" on providers and patients in the state.

Nearly all abortions were banned in Texas for a month when the state's abortion law went into effect in early September. Then in early October, a judge temporarily halted the ban, which prompted some abortion clinics to reopen.

That lasted two days.

A temporary order, issued Friday by a federal appeals court, could be reversed at any time when the court makes a more permanent ruling. But for now, it allows Texas to temporarily resume its ban on most abortions.
