Here are the two cases:
The second case was filed by the Biden administration. The question is whether the federal government has the ability to sue Texas (or public officials or private parties) to block the abortion law.https://t.co/tapOAzdKyD

The Texas Abortion law is already saving the lives of unborn children.
The number of clinic-performed abortions in Texas decreased by about 50% in September — the month the state’s near total ban on the procedure went into effect — when compared with the same month last year, according to research from the Texas Policy Evaluation Project.
Driving the news: The Texas ban, which effectively bars the procedure after six weeks of pregnancy, is the most restrictive law allowed to be enforced since the 1973 landmark Roe v. Wade case legalized abortion in the U.S.
By the numbers: In September, there were 2,164 clinic abortions performed in Texas, compared with 4,313 abortions performed in the same month last year, according to research released Friday. No other Texas law or order restricting abortion has seen such a large decrease, the researchers noted.
UPDATE:
BREAKING: Oral arguments have concluded. Please join us in praying that the Supreme Court allows the Texas abortion ban to stand so thousands more babies will be saved from abortions.
