The University of Texas recently did a study about support for abortion in relation to fetal pain. Science shows babies inside the womb can feel pain at 20 weeks. The overwhelming majority of men and women in Texas support a ban on abortions after 20 weeks.

Respondents were told, "Below are some proposals that the Texas Legislature has debated this session. Please tell us whether you would support or oppose each of the following proposals" Half of respondents were asked their opinion on each of the following two proposals: "Prohibiting abortions after 20 weeks based on the argument that a fetus can feel pain at that point" and "Prohibiting abortions after 20 weeks."
