In a ruling Tuesday, U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix temporarily blocked the government from enforcing the guidance in Texas, saying the guidance forces physicians to place the health of the pregnant person over that of the fetus or embryo even though EMTALA "is silent as to abortion."
Paxton called the court’s decision to side with Texas a "crucial step in preventing Joe Biden and his radical pro-abortion Administration from breaking the law and threatening our entire healthcare industry by withholding federal funds."
