The Biden Administration asked the Supreme Court, to do what the they Declined to do last month: Block the Enforcement of the Texas Law that imposes a near-total Ban on Abortions performed after the Sixth week of Pregnancy.
In an eEergency Request by Acting Solicitor General, Brian Fletcher, the Department of Justice (DOJ) told the Court that by making “abortion effectively unavailable” after six weeks, “Texas has, in short, successfully nullified” the Supreme Court’s “decisions within its borders.”
The New Request in United States v. Texas, asks the Justices to Reinstate a Decision of a Federal District Judge, who Declared the Law Unconstitutional and Temporarily Blocked it earlier this month.
An Appeals Court quickly issued a Stay of the District Judge’s Decision, prompting the Federal Government to seek Emergency Relief at the Supreme Court.
The Biden Administration’s Request went to Justice Samuel Alito, who fields Emergency Requests from the 5th Circuit.
Alito acted quickly, ordering Texas to file its Response by Noon on Thursday, Oct. 21st.
