The Biden administration has urged a federal judge to block the nation’s most restrictive abortion law, which has banned most abortions in Texas since early September and sent women racing to get care beyond the state’s borders.

The law bans abortion in Texas once cardiac activity is detected, which us usually around six weeks, before some women know they are pregnant. No exceptions are made in cases of rape or incest. Enforcement is solely left up to private citizens, who are entitled to at least $10,000 in damages if they are successful in suing not just abortion providers but anyone found to have helped a woman get an abortion.

“This is not some kind of vigilante scheme,” said Will Thompson, defending the law for the Texas Attorney General’s Office. “This is a scheme that uses the normal, lawful process of justice in Texas.”

GravityOfRaptureEntry through Rapture is a reward. It is GOD'S LOVE to those who are faithful to HIM.

Is he allowed to do that? I mean, I hope the judge does block it, but can the president pressure him to do it?

It should be banned until SCOTUS has the guts to respond.

Roe vs Wade is established law. It doesn’t matter if congress passed it or not there is a moral right for a woman to have an abortion. We need to pack the court if that’s what is required.

If you think about it this law is just like the Taliban government using religious beliefs to promote religious laws

Republicans can't get rid of abortion without putting bounties on women...pathetic.

Abortion is not “care.”

Fingers crossed that the judge blocks this ridiculous law

NPR Cookie Consent and ChoicesInteresting that those who scream the loudest about 'Religious Freedom' are forcing others to live by their religious views, and doing so without having any involvement with the impact on women's lives or taking care of the child after birth.
