Biden Admin Sues Texas For Law Protecting Unborn Babies With Heart Activity: ‘Clearly Unconstitutional’
The Biden administration announced on Thursday that it is taking legal action against the state of Texas over a bill that recently became law in the state that protects unborn babies from being aborted at the point of the “first detectable heartbeat.”
“[Texas Heartbeat Act] is clearly unconstitutional under long-standing Supreme Court precedent,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said at a press conference. “Those precedents hold in the words of Planned Parenthood versus Casey, that quote, regardless of whether exceptions are made for particular circumstances, a state may not prohibit any woman from making the ultimate decision to terminate her pregnancy before viability.”
