Actress Sandra Bullock will be portraying Texas lawmaker Wendy Davis in a film that dramatizes her filibuster in the Texas legislature in an attempt to protect abortion services.
In 2013, Davis received national press for a filibuster she began to thwart a bill that would increase restrictions on abortion in Texas. The bill passed on a second session anyway, but she gained national exposure and popularity for her pro-abortion stance.
It appears that the film will glorify Davis’ filibuster against the Republicans in Texas to preserve abortion services.
“Let Her Speak covers that historic day and how a onetime teen mom who became a Harvard-trained lawyer showed the courage to change her own life, along with the lives of American women,” according to Deadline.
