Texas Sues Biden Administration to Block Abortion Care in Cases of Medical Emergency
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Texas has sued the Biden administration over new federal rules ordering
physicians and hospitals to provide abortions in cases of medical
emergencies - even in states where the procedure is banned. Texas
Attorney General Ken Paxton said in a statement the Biden administration
is seeking to "transform every emergency room in the country into a
walk-in abortion clinic."
