USA -Texas: US Justice Department sues Texas over abortion law

The US Justice Department is suing Texas over a new state law that bans most abortions, saying it was enacted "in open defiance of the Constitution."

A lawsuit filed Thursday in a Texas federal court calls on judges to declare the law invalid, prevent it from being enforced and "protect the rights that Texas has violated."

The Texas law prohibits abortions after medical professionals detect cardiac activity — usually around six weeks after conception, a point at which some women do not know they are pregnant.
