Liberal 'View' hosts rail against Texas abortion law: 'It's insane'

"The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg accused Texas lawmakers of "punishing" women with a new law that bans abortions after six weeks, the point when a fetal heartbeat can be detected.

"When you say that you can't get an abortion, whether you've been raped or you have had incest, anything, that's a punishment," Goldberg said of the Texas Heartbeat Act on Tuesday. "They are punishing all these young women who may not be laying around trying to get next to some man, who has been molested or raped." The Oscar-winning actress argued that the measure was a "hard Christian thing" for her because it prevents Christian parents from making decisions for their children. She later called the measure "insane."
