Texan Valedictorian Addresses The State’s Anti-Abortion Bill After Dropping Her Approved Speech At The Last Minute
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed a law banning abortion from as early as 6 weeks. And Paxton Smith has a problem with it.
The valedictorian of Lake Highlands High School’s Class of 2021 decided to abandon her original, approved speech and pulled a last-second switcheroo to talk about what’s most important to her: women’s rights.
When Smith came up to the microphone, she took out a piece of paper secretly tucked into her shirt and addressed the school with confidence. But her powerful words have spread way beyond Lake Highlands. Clips of her remarks have quickly gone viral on social media and are now making headlines around the world.
Paxton told BBC she was stunned that the speech was received so well by the audience and school officials, saying: “With every sentence that I made I was shocked that the microphone was not cut off.”
The only people who knew that she was going to change her words were her parents, who have been “extremely supportive” after earlier expressing concerns that the controversial topic “would come back to haunt me in my future”.
The Richardson Independent School District, which Lake Highlands School is a part of, has reportedly said it will review student speech protocols before future graduation ceremonies.
“The content of each student speaker’s message is the private, voluntary expression of the individual student and does not reflect the endorsement, sponsorship, position or expression of the district or its employees,” it explained in a statement to CBS.
Here’s a video of Paxton’s speech
Initially, she had planned to talk about TV and the media

To learn more about pregnancy and abortion, Bored Panda contacted general practitioner, medical researcher, and founder of PrimeHealth Clinical Research, Iris Gorfinkel, M.D.
After we asked her when do most women learn they’re pregnant, Gorfinkel said, “I actually looked that up and found that it is, in fact, consistent with my own experience—about three-quarters of the time, women learn at five and a half weeks.”
The time varies because, as Gorfinkel pointed out, most women don’t go exactly 28 days between periods; a lot of them experience periods anywhere between 26 and 35 days. “When the period is late, a lot of women figure ‘Oh, I’ll just wait a few days, and it’ll come up.’ And then when it doesn’t begin, that’s when they get clued in, and that can be five weeks to six weeks,” the doctor explained.
Why is that? “The convention of counting pregnancy starts from the first day of the last period,” Gorfinkel said. “What’s weird about this convention is that women are two weeks pregnant before they realize they’re pregnant (ovulation takes place midway in the cycle). So in an average cycle of 28 days, ovulation — the time a woman is most likely to conceive — is at 14 days after the period starts, and a woman conceives on that day and doesn’t realize she’s pregnant until her period is late, that might be 35 days. She’s by definition, five weeks pregnant. Already, that throws a lot of women off.”

So that’s three-quarters of women. But what about that one-quarter? After all, that’s still a lot of cases. Well, they don’t realize they’re pregnant until much later. Generally speaking, they’re younger women, they’re more likely to be black or hispanic, and they’re more likely to have low education and low socioeconomic status. “What’s more concerning is that these women also are more likely to not have wanted to become pregnant and to engage in higher-risk behaviors,” Gorfinkel said.
“The downstream effect is that these women are more likely to have a baby with birth defects, they are more likely to give preterm birth, their babies are more likely to have low birth weights as well as wind up in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Furthermore, these women are also more likely to have a natural pregnancy loss [Gorfinkel doesn’t like the term ‘miscarriage’, and has actually written a wonderful piece on why we should replace it].”
“That said, these are the very women who need to have abortion as an available option the most.”
Doctor Gorfinkel thinks that six weeks (or the presence of the fetal heartbeat) is not a good way to mark the limit after which a person can no longer have an abortion. “My own personal belief has always been that this fall squarely into the realm of a woman’s own choice of what she wants to do with her body,” she said. “[We have to acknowledge that] a woman has to undergo all of the risks of the pregnancy, and this includes financial risk, socioeconomic risk, risk to her relationship — which is a tremendous challenge — and risk to her own physicality. Everything from massive changes in her body to hypertension to diabetes, to blood clots that happen more frequently during pregnancy, to the potential for hemorrhage, infection, all the kind of the consequences and the long-lasting consequences of giving birth to a child and, of course, raising that child.”
To conclude, Iris Gorginkel said that she thinks women should be able to choose what they want to do with their bodies. But that choice should be enlightened. “It should not be a choice guided by her doctor, the father of the baby, her family, or even directed necessarily by finances but rather directed by inner peace. Because this is a potentially devastating decision that women face.”
“I think that there is a certain emotional cost that goes along with pregnancy, no matter what the decision is. But the question is, where’s the greater inner peace with that decision?”

The law bans abortions after the detection of what anti-abortion campaigners call a fetal heartbeat. It is also unique in giving any individual the right to sue anyone who knowingly “aids and abets” an abortion, meaning that people could sue, say, friends and family who help someone obtain an abortion. Or an Uber driver who simply drove the woman.
Healthcare workers and women’s rights groups have heavily criticized the law, which will take effect in September if it is not stopped by a court.
In May, Texas became the latest and largest US state to pass abortion restrictions. The news came just days after the US Supreme Court agreed to hear a case that could upend the nationwide legal right to abortion, laid out in the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling.

I commend her for standing up for all women. She's a window to our future!
@K Witmer This is a worthy share! I couldn't agree more.
Load More Replies...It's time men are forced to have a vasectomy. They can reverse it when the women consents to getting pregnant. I can guarantee men would cry about how it's their body and no one else's
I have some mixed feelings about this, mainly bc some men might use it as an excuse to be less responsible and/or less concerned about confirming consent, and because not all vasectomies take. But generally I'm with you.
Load More Replies...That video/this post is really inspiring. It takes a lot of gut and confidence to speak to that many people about a topic like this. GO PAXTON!
Outstanding speech! Kudos to her for doing something not many people dared to and outlining it so simply.
To make matters even worse, just this year, after one of my friends got pregnant, I learned that you count a pregnancy from the first day of your last period. So "six weeks" pregnant actually means you've only been pregnant for two (as you count the first four as a "bonus"). Blew my mind. I totally get most women won't even realize they're pregnant yet and if they do, what time do they have left to think about it or make an appointment? Gut wrenching.
Most women are two weeks pregnant at conception, because conception happens in the middle of the four week cycle. So when you’re six weeks pregnant, you are four weeks post-conception and only two weeks past your first missed period.
Load More Replies...This is infuriating. All this means is that poor women will suffer the most. The very people Texas hates will be forced to have children. Middle class and up will be able to go to another state or order the abortion pill online. The bill is racist as well bc the poor women in Texas are blpoc that now have no access to women's healthcare. It's time to sue Texas for human rights violations and discrimination
The Auntie Network will send you free pills online. There are forums of women who swap abortion pills when needed, on Reddit. Just FYI
Load More Replies...I understand your fear and hoplessness, but no, it can't be over. When I was your age, abortion was only allowed under specific conditions; now it is free and available to everyone. It can change. it has to change--because of exactly what you've said here. Fight please.
Load More Replies...I want to know if the school retaliated in any way. That's the sort of thing that a lot of high schools would do, especially in Texas. And yes, I do know: I live in Texas (I have for most of my life), and there are adults in positions of power who do all they can to make you afraid of using your voice.
From what I've read they plan to pre-record future speeches.
Load More Replies...At times of crisis, women's bodies (their clothing, their choices, their rights) become the focus of that anxiety. Here we are again, the same story. Thank you Paxton for standing up against tyranny, fear and misogyny. Now, we have to back her up and support her.
What an inspiration she is. Well said Paxton. Thank you for standing up to be counted. What a very brave and noble thing to do. Keep up with the excellent work, you shall go very far in life. Well done again. I bet your family are really proud of you and again thank you.
This is going to really kill abused women too. Abusive males use pregnancy to keep women from leaving them. More children and women will now be murdered watch the deaths of all women and children in Texas spike in the next year and a half either from suicide murder or back door abortions or difficult births abusive men. Abbot and conservatives dont care about lives only getting a vote from the crazies that want to control what women do that's it nothing else
What is an "approved speech"? What is the sense of such a speech if someone can censor it arbitrarily?
"Approved speech", in this country means " don't embarrass the adults". Every graduation season, there is almost always an article/news clip about a valedictorian who uses their platform to try and raise social consciousness and inevitably they are punished in one way or another for it. School districts supposedly encourage their students to be independent, free thinkers then turn around and screw the pooch. Hypocrisy at it's finest.
Load More Replies...This is one of those things that are highly political and religious. Sadly its a room full of men or overly religious women making these types of choices for all the women in their state. As this young lady graciously put it we should be worried about our mothers, sisters, daughters and no man or women should have the right to tell us what we can and cannot do with our bodies. You dont believe in abortions, fine then dont f*****g have one but no one should have the right to decide for someone else. I try to stay clear from politics as much as possible but I will forever do my best to never live in a red state.
Isn't it sad that a young woman has to educate old perverts on the consequences of their need to control the womb of women? What's next? Do we really need to educate politicians that a woman's body has no way to prevent pregnancy if they are raped or that "laying back and enjoy" is not really an option when a pervert takes control of your body? USA, you're fvcked and raped and politicians tell you that that's just the way the dice rolls and you should be happy and grateful that you're not killed.
Good for you, comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Screw these repukes, I hope they all got triggered
I can't believe the administrators didn't just yank her off the stage. I mean, schools are micro-governments and can be very ass-backward about people speaking their minds. Way to go, Paxton!! Thank you!!
Those who oppress others never want them to think and speak their minds.
Load More Replies...the folks who support this kind of thing are also the same folks who bitch about everything as stepping on THEIR rights.
the are also the same people who want capital punishment, no gun control, no increase in minimum wage, no universal healthcare and no state-sponsored child care. They do not give a good goddamn about life.
Load More Replies...Paxton for Senate! That should be her future. We need strong women like this to shake a little sense into the lawmakers.
She's too bright for the US. Too considerate for the US. Too human for an area under control of the republican party in its current state. She's right with every single word - this invasive law is a crime in itself. No one, nowhere, should have the right to decide about a pregnancy but the potential parents ... or, to be more precise - the male part still has to earn being relevant for the decision - and the last word, of course, is to be hers and hers only. The state has other problems to deal with ... why aren't they taken care of? Are so-called Prolifers that important as voters? I doubt the majority of them even is able to submit a sufficient vote, for how much they are getting wrong about how many things, and that in one issue alone.
The majority of the women in the USA agree with her though. She fits in perfectly.
Load More Replies...I'm going to go out on a limb here and take a guess that none of the MEN pushing this type of legislation wear condoms 100% they have sex or are willing to undergo prophylactic vasectomies to reduce unwanted pregnancies. I say this because this issue isn't about unwanted pregnancy at all, it's about control, plain & simple. This is Neanderthal thinking.
Why did Texas women elect men who have any stance on a woman's decisions? Get out and vote, girls! You're the majority of the population. Do SOMETHING!
Before I started reading about this on internet I didn't know getting an abortion was such a big issue in some countries.
i am pro choice of abortion. I see every logical reasoning and argument and don't see any good point why it should be forbidden. But is it wrong i kinda feel a sadness when i read about abortion. It makes me feel a bit as when i read about a dog being put to sleep. You know it's for the better but it feels like something potential good has been lost.
Sex should be withheld unless a pregnancy is being sought. Play hardball with these politicians that think they can make laws for YOUR body without representation and consent.

How this disgusting bill went through is astounding, you claim to be so progressive and free in parts if not all of America? The rest of the world now see what is really like, the healthcare, these abortion bills, really how anyone lives happily there is beyond me. I used to have a dream like admiration for the US...all gone.
That's not true at all, my first pregnancy i didn't know until 9 weeks, second pregnancy was 6 weeks and third pregnancy was 10 weeks. And I had all the knowledge I just didn't have any pregnancy symptoms. Some women don't even know they are pregnant and suddenly give birth. Educate yourself. My life is more important than an unborn foetus and my family would agree. A woman having an abortion does not effect your life but forcing a woman into an unwanted pregnancy effects countless lives. Plus pregnancy and childbirth can kill a woman, so why should she risk her life for a foetus. A woman is a living and breathing person, with conciousness and feeling and a foetus is neither.
