CHICAGO — Kate Cox, a Texas woman who had to leave the state to terminate her nonviable pregnancy, was at the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday and announced she is pregnant. 

During the ceremonial roll call vote, Cox was one of the speakers representing the Texas delegation as they cast their votes for Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic nominee.  

Cox sued Texas last year over the state’s restrictive abortion laws. Her lawyers argued she met the state’s exception for an abortion because of her health being at risk, but the Texas Supreme Court rejected her request. 

The mother of two, soon to be three, slammed Trump during her remarks, claiming that “his abortion bans” forced her to “flee her home” to terminate her nonviable pregnancy. 

“There’s nothing pro-family about abortion bans. There’s nothing pro-life about letting women suffer and even die,” Cox said. “Today, because I found a way to access abortion care, I am pregnant again.”

Cox said her due date is in January, saying it will be “just in time to see Kamala Harris sworn in as president of the United States.”

Cox was joined by actor Eva Longoria, "Desperate Housewives" star and Corpus Christi native, Cecile Richards, former president of Planned Parenthood and daughter of former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, and Gilberto Hinojosa, chair of the Texas Democratic Party. 

Each state was introduced alphabetically with a song by an artist from the state. Texas’ was "Texas Hold ‘Em" by Houston native Beyonce. 

Cox wasn’t the only Texas woman at the convention speaking about the state’s abortion law. Amanda Zurawski, who sued Texas over its abortion ban, spoke on Monday night. 

Zurawski was originally told by her doctors she couldn’t have an abortion under the state’s law after she experienced pregnancy complications. She said in testimony to Congress back in April that she received an emergency abortion only after she went into septic shock.
