The U.S. Department of Justice on Sept. 9 filed a lawsuit against the state of Texas over its recently enacted law that bans most abortions.

Government lawyers in the 27-page suit, obtained by The Epoch Times, say the law runs counter to previous Supreme Court rulings, including Roe v. Wade, which found that access to abortion is a constitutional right.
