The ruling by a unanimous panel of fifth US circuit court of appeals comes amid a wave of lawsuits focusing on abortion exceptions

The US government cannot enforce federal guidance in Texas requiring emergency room doctors to perform abortions if necessary to stabilize emergency room patients, a federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday, siding with the state in a lawsuit accusing Joe Biden’s administration of overstepping its authority.

The ruling by a unanimous panel of the fifth US circuit court of appeals comes amid a wave of lawsuits focusing on when abortions can be provided in states whose abortion bans have exceptions for medical emergencies.

    all states have started to do things on a state by state basis unless the federal law is favored

    policing, abortion, insurance, wages, cannabis are all state by state issue

    federal is out the window just look at voting you get to vote on who your state decides to put on the ballot

    not everyone in texas decided this the politicians did look at Ohio recently it does not listen to what people vote for

    obama, trump, and biden all support states rights that is just the last three presidents

      Yeah if texas can amend their constitution by ballot initiative, as an Ohioan I recommend they learn from us. It’s basically the only way we get what we want since we’re so gerrymandered
