As the nation continues to navigate the impact of the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, several Texas Democrats and abortion advocates called on the Biden administration to take immediate and direct action to protect Texans’ access to abortion. Meanwhile, Republicans are demanding that by declare that an " invasion" is occurring at the border and take extraordinary axtions to protect the border from further incursions by illegal immigrants.
First on the Democrat's list of requests in a letter to the White House was for President Joe Biden to declare a public health emergency to ensure telehealth providers can dispense abortion-inducing medication without interruption.
The heavily-Republican Texas legislature passed what is known as a "trigger law" last year that, in the event of Roe v Wade being overturned, abortions would all but be eliminated in the state. That has now occurred, and Biden has since pledged that he would protect abortion in every state
