Breaking news out of Texas where a 17-year-old illegal immigrant known as “Jane Doe” held in a detention center had an abortion this morning:
BREAKING: Justice prevailed today for Jane Doe. She was able to get an abortion early this morning. #JusticeforJane
— ACLU (@ACLU) October 25, 2017
The D.C. Circuit court ruled yesterday that the abortion could move forward:
BREAKING: The D.C. Circuit rules that Trump officials can’t block an undocumented 17-year-old from access to abortion care. #JusticeforJane

The procedure was done on Wednesday before the Trump administration could appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court:

And the ACLU promises of all this:
Make no mistake, the Trump administration's efforts to interfere in women's decisions won't stop with Jane Doe. We will not stop fighting until every woman has access to abortion care. #JusticeforJane

Potentially, a lot more:
ACLU has brought a class action on their behalf. https://t.co/T3IcYwjO1x
