Texas Governor Greg Abbott has ordered hospitals to gather data on the immigration status of patients, arguing Texas has had to “foot the bill” for the Biden administration’s border policies.

Under the executive order, hospitals will have to compile statistics on inpatient discharges and emergency visits by undocumented migrants, as well as on the cost of caring for them.

Opponents say the order will lead to racial profiling and deter migrants from seeking help.
