A group of 22 House Republicans sent a letter Friday to the Biden administration, demanding answers on reports that federal agencies have transported illegal immigrants to receive abortions.
The coalition, led by Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., addressed the letter to Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra, noting recent media reports suggesting that the federal government has transported, via plane and car, minors from Texas shelters to abortion clinics in other states over the past nine months.
White House officials are exploring policies that would grant abortion access to women and girls in immigration custody, Reuters reported earlier this month.
