Biden is concerned about the decision made about abortion in Texas

The president of the United States, Joe Biden, is "very worried" for the ruling of this Friday of the Supreme Court that leaves in force the law of Texas that practically prohibits abortion, although it allows clinics to practice that procedure to continue with their legal challengesIn lower cuts.

"The President is very concerned about the decision of the Supreme Court that allows SB8 (the name of the Texas Law) in effect given the consequences that the law has for women in Texas and throughout the country and for the state ofRight, "said White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki, at her daily press conference.

The spokeswoman said that Biden is committed to the right to abortion, which was recognized in the United States in 1973 thanks to the ruling in the "Roe against Wade" case, which established that a woman can end her pregnancy in the first sixmonths of gestation.

Instead of depending on this historic failure to protect abortion, Psaki reiterated Biden's desire that this right is collected in a law that is approved by Congress.

In September, the lower house approved a bill that would shield the right to abortion throughout the country and would leave the vetoes in Texas and other states, but that has virtually no possibility of getting ahead in the Senate because it would need several votesof the republican opposition.

However, Psaki said that the White House has been in contact with the Democratic leadership in Congress to approve that rule and expressed "hope" to get ahead.

The United States Supreme Court did not enter this Friday to assess whether Texas's legislation violates abortion and limited itself to establishing that abortive clinics can continue with their legal challenges in lower cuts, although the rule will remain in force.

Texas's Law, which entered into force in September, prohibits abortion from six weeks of gestation and does not contain exceptions for cases of incest or violation.

One of its most controversial aspects is that it leaves in the hands of individuals and not of state officials, as usual, its application, since anyone can submit civil lawsuits against anyone who helps a pregnant woman to abort if they believe they violate the prohibition.

In addition, it offers rewards of up to 10.000 dollars to each plaintiff if the trial wins.

This system has so far allowed the Texas authorities to avoid responsibility for the application of the law, because the weight of the implementation falls to those private citizens and not the conservative leaders who promoted the veto to abortion.

No other similar law that prohibits aborting six weeks of gestation - when you can detect the heartbeat of the fetus - has entered into force in the United States.
