Texas sued the Biden administration in an effort to block a new rule that seeks to protect the privacy of women living in states that ban abortion who travel out of state for the procedure.
In a lawsuit filed on Wednesday, opens new tab in Lubbock, Texas, the state is asking a federal judge to strike down the rule, which prohibits healthcare providers and insurers from giving state law enforcement authorities information about reproductive healthcare that is legal where it was provided.
President Joe Biden, a Democrat, said in announcing the rule in April that no one should have their medical records “used against them, their doctor, or their loved one just because they sought or received lawful reproductive health care.”
Suing so you can Have a Database of EVERY PREGNANT WOMAN AND CHILD in your State is called SMALL GOVERNMENT!
Maybe making them wear some kind of marking on their clothing so that everyone knows who they are, and can keep an eye on them would help?
Obviously /s
Isn’t that just like… fucking HIPPA? Medical information should be private for extremely good reasons.
Yes, but when you’re pregnant everyone knows that HIPPA doesn’t count.
You’re either with the Baby Murderers or you’re with Ken Paxton on this.
They’re just trying to keep government small and out of your business… or something
Government that’s small enough to fit inside your uterus.
Well they must want more women to vote for Harris.
Protecting everyone’s privacy should be the default, and we need federal legislation to set that default.
Well they must want more women to vote for Harris.
Oh don’t worry, they’re finding ways to prevent this as well.
Texas women, you’re just gonna take that huh.
Hm.
What would you have us do? Paxton isn’t going anywhere anytime soon and Texans do not have the power to recall officials. We can’t protest because in 2023 they passed a law making basically all protests illegal.
Even if Texas goes blue Abbott and Paxton are still in office because they’re not up for reelection this year. Plus the state is so gerrymandered, even if it did go blue nationally, locally the dems probably couldn’t retake the state government.
Hate to say it but even if Kamala wins any women or queer person in Texas who can leave, should.
You know that famous Texas saying: “Don’t tread on me, unless you’re a christofacist, then HARDER.”
What the fuck is with republicans and their desire to know the entire history of a woman’s genitals.
Please provide your pussy resume.

What’s this 3 year gap?
I applied to renew my virginity.
It’s because they don’t know enough about their wife’s own genitals. They don’t see those often enough to learn anything lol.
But in all seriousness: Very rape-y vibes from those guys, I have to say. Pretty gross.
Reminds me of this classic gem:
Its because women are treated as property just like children are to these men. They only think for themselves and how their family can serve them best, and expect everyone to bend to their will and morals, whether they change daily or not.
America has a huge problem with raising a generation of people who’s focus was greed and who see life as a competition with other people as winners or losers. The concept of considering another perspective is completely foreign.
So the right does not actually care about HIPAA anymore?
For women?
No.
For men and dick pills?
Absolutely.
