cemented conservative control of the high court. In December, the court will hear arguments in Mississippi's bid to overturn Roe v. Wade.Lawyers for the Justice Department asked U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman to block the law temporarily at a hearing in Austin, Reuters reported.
"There is no doubt under binding constitutional precedents that a state may not ban abortions at six weeks," Brian Netter, the lead Justice Department attorney on the case, told the court. "Texas knew this but it wanted a six-week ban anyway. So this state resorted to an unprecedented scheme of vigilante justice."by suing doctors or anyone who assists a woman in getting an abortion, entitling them to at least $10,000 in damages if successful.
Will Thompson, an attorney in the Texas Attorney General's Office, said the Justice Department's arguments were filled with"hyperbole and inflammatory rhetoric." Thompson also said there were plenty of opportunities for Texans to challenge the law on their own, according to Reuters.
