Texas sues to block Biden rule protecting privacy for women who get abortions
Texas sued the Biden administration in an effort to block a new rule that seeks to protect the privacy of women living in states that ban abortion who travel out of state for the procedure.
In a lawsuit filed on Wednesday, opens new tab in Lubbock, Texas, the state is asking a federal judge to strike down the rule, which prohibits healthcare providers and insurers from giving state law enforcement authorities information about reproductive healthcare that is legal where it was provided.
President Joe Biden, a Democrat, said in announcing the rule in April that no one should have their medical records "used against them, their doctor, or their loved one just because they sought or received lawful reproductive health care."

Texas women, you’re just gonna take that huh.
Hm.
What would you have us do? Paxton isn't going anywhere anytime soon and Texans do not have the power to recall officials. We can't protest because in 2023 they passed a law making basically all protests illegal.
Even if Texas goes blue Abbott and Paxton are still in office because they're not up for reelection this year. Plus the state is so gerrymandered, even if it did go blue nationally, locally the dems probably couldn't retake the state government.
Hate to say it but even if Kamala wins any women or queer person in Texas who can leave, should.
You know that famous Texas saying: "Don't tread on me, unless you're a christofacist, then HARDER."
Are you trying to blame the victim?
I wasn't aware there are no Republican women in Texas.
You didn't say Republican women, just women.
