According to <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/administration\/571419-biden-jumps-into-texas-abortion-fight-with-limited-options\">reports<\/a>, \u201cpeople familiar with the matter\u201d have said the Department of Justice could file the suit as early as this week. The Justice Department is expected to argue the law illegally interferes with federal interests.<\/p>\n<p>This comes after Democrats and abortion rights groups have continued to push the administration to take action. When asked about the possibility of the suit, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to confirm if it was in the works. However, she asserted that an action as such would reflect Joe Biden\u2019s calls to protect women\u2019s right to choose.<\/p>\n<p>The law has seen push-back over the lack of a provision for victims of rape or incest, which Gov. Greg Abbott (R-Texas) said they have a plan for.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd Texas will work tirelessly to make sure that we eliminate all rapists from the streets of Texas by aggressively going out and arresting them and prosecuting them,\u201d stated the governor. \u201cAnd getting them off the streets.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">No freedom is more precious than life itself.<\/p>\n<p>Starting today, every unborn child with a heartbeat will be protected from the ravages of abortion.<\/p>\n<p>Texas will always defend the right to life.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ProLife?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ProLife<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kmsxAqjE5C\">pic.twitter.com\/kmsxAqjE5C<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Greg Abbott (@GregAbbott_TX) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GregAbbott_TX\/status\/1433147746618421249?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 1, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Attorney General Merrick Garland this week said the Justice Department is exploring all its options.
