FILE - Sacred Heart Emergency Center is pictured March 29, 2024, in Houston. The Biden administration is telling emergency room doctors they must perform emergency abortions when necessary to save a pregnant woman's health. That's following last week's 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that failed to settle a legal dispute over whether state abortion bans override the federal law that requires hospitals to stabilize patients.

Brian Sandoval recently signed a bill that will backfill hundreds of thousands of federal grant dollars to pay nurses and provide birth control that the state lost after a scathing report described state-run reproductive health clinics in disarray.
