Congratulations to Caroline Klibanoff and her inspiring #CivicSeason project for this great #Us250 honor bestowed by @NewAmerica.

STAR REPORTER OF THE YEAR 3A 1st Place: Tony Plohetski, Austin American-Statesman 2nd Place: Julian Gill, Houston Chronicle 3rd Place: Nichole Manna, Fort Worth Star-Telegram Honorable Mention: Eleanor Klibanoff, Texas Tribune #tme23

“You have to get dressed and come back out to the lobby … The doctor will explain more … but we can’t even give you a consultation today.” A Texas abortion clinic ceased abortions immediately after the decision. Then, they had to tell the patients. texastribune.org/2022/06/25/tex…
