Biden Prepares to Sue Texas Over Abortion Law

“The Biden administration is preparing to sue Texas over its new law banning most abortions, an action that would set off a federal-state clash at a time when the future of abortion rights becomes an ever-more-pressing question before the courts,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“The Justice Department could file a lawsuit as soon as Thursday, the people said, adding that the timing could be pushed back. The Biden administration has faced pressure from Democrats and abortion-rights groups to take action to stop the Texas restrictions after the Supreme Court last week allowed them to take effect.”
