Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra wrote a letter to health care providers telling them that they must provide abortions in cases of medical emergencies. If they didn’t follow the order their Medicare provider agreement could terminated or they could end up face financial penalties.
This order would go into effect in every state in the United States regardless of what abortion laws are on the books in those states.
CNBC reported:
Physicians must provide abortions in medical emergencies under federal law and will face penalties if they decline to offer the procedure in these cases, Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra wrote in a letter to health care providers on Monday.
Texas has officially sued the Biden administration over this.
The Epoch Times reported:
Texas on July 14 sued the federal government over a recent document that says abortions must be performed even if the procedures are not allowed by state laws.
The guidance amounts to an abortion mandate and is illegal because it violates multiple laws, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican, said.
