The state filed its response Thursday to, the most restrictive abortion curb in the nation, and rule conclusively this term on the measure’s constitutionality.
The court’s intervention at this early stage, before a federal appeals court has ruled on the law, would be highly unusual but not unprecedented. In its court filing, Texas defended an order by a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that allowed the abortion law to go back into effect after a lower-court judge put it on hold.
“In sum, far from being demonstrably wrong, the Fifth Circuit’s conclusion that Texas is likely to prevail was entirely right,” the state wrote.The Biden administration argues the law is “clearly unconstitutional” because it bans abortions at roughly six weeks, long before a fetus can survive outside the womb. The Supreme Court’s major abortion rulings make clear that states can regulate but not prohibit abortions before the point of fetal viability.
Duh…
The constitution doesn't state that anyone has the right to kill their unborn child, it does in fact state that everyone has the right to LIFE and liberty.
Haven’t we been through this? Why are we rehashing established law?
texas has tried for a very long time to legislate a particular type of morality upon its residents it needs to be enforced by the federal government that we deserve certain rights, INCLUDING access to no-questions-asked abortion in the first trimester texas, be better.
A major flaw is that it bans all but a few abortions after six weeks’ gestation, a period so short that many women will not even know they are pregnant!! Once women find out they are pregnant it may already be after six weeks, regardless of rape or sexual assault situations

Abbott’s Talibanizing of Texas has awakened strong women of America. Not only just today but what are the rest of the American allied states going to do about it going forward? Texas and Abbott are not relenting. Women’s fight for justice is relentless.
Well if one of his friends delevers your baby, you won't have to worry about an abortion...
