HOUSTON, Texas – Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton secured a temporary injunction shutting down multiple Houston-area clinics managed by Maria Margarita Rojas.
According to the Office of the Attorney General, an investigation revealed that these clinics were performing illegal abortions and operating without proper medical licenses.
Paxton condemned the clinics, stating, “This network of clinics illegally aborted unborn children and practiced medicine without a license, intentionally deceiving and endangering the communities they claimed to serve.”
He reaffirmed his commitment to enforcing state laws, adding, “Life is sacred, and I will always do everything in my power to protect the most vulnerable and uphold Texas law.”
The injunction follows Rojas’ arrest last Monday in connection with these operations.
A Texas district court judge extended the temporary order, reinforcing a prior restraining order issued by Paxton’s Healthcare Program Enforcement Division.
Authorities also detained two associates of Rojas, accusing them of hiring unlicensed staff who falsely claimed medical credentials.
The case remains under investigation, according to the Attorney General’s office.
