- The Biden administration is looking to "bail out" Texas pro-abortion groups with its new actions, one former senior HHS official told CNA this week.

- Severino formerly headed the HHS civil rights office from 2017 to 2021, under President Trump's administration.
- 17 had announced three actions as part of an effort to 'bolster' abortion in Texas, after the state's pro-life law went into effect on Sept.
