Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton tried his darndest to block emergency rooms from offering abortions to save the life of pregnant people.
if the life of the mother is at risk, because federal law on emergency medical treatment trumps state laws that now ban abortions without exception – bans that are, of course, going into effect after the. Even though Texas’s abortion restrictions still allow for life-saving abortions, Paxton’s office took issue with the president’s guidance in aIn the complaint, Paxton claimed that Biden was attempting “to transform every emergency room in the country into a walk-in abortion clinic.
Paxton’s lawsuit points out that EMTALA defines an emergency medical condition as a medical condition with acute symptoms which, without immediate medical attention, could place “the health of the individual in serious jeopardy” or cause serious impairment or dysfunction to any part of the patient’s body.
In what reads as a thinly veiled threat to Texas providers, Paxton argues that Biden’s guidance would actually force hospitals and doctors to commit crimes and risk their licensure under Texas law. At the same time, he says that EMTALA’s wording actually “contemplates that an emergency medical condition is one that threatens the life of the unborn child.
Overall, the lawsuit adds more legal knots to the ratty jumble of abortion-related laws that doctors must comb through at the moment.
