Texas Democratic urge Biden to use federal powers to restore medication abortion access
People in favor of the right to an abortion participate in the “Pro-Choice Caucus” meeting during the 2022 Texas Democratic Convention, Friday, July 15, 2022, in Dallas.Texas Democratic leaders are urging the Biden Administration to wield the power of the federal government to help patients access abortion, especially in pill form.
“We’ve been fighting on this issue for a long time, and we have to continue to fight because I’ll be damned if we give a worse future to our daughters and our little nieces and our little girls than we had,” Garcia said at the news conference. The letter also suggests the administration create a federal program for providers who are federal employees or contractors who want to volunteer their time to dispense donation-funded medication abortion. The purpose would be to circumvent the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits taxpayer dollars from being used to fund abortions.
