Biden, Desperate for Abortion, Overreaches in Idaho
The U.S. Supreme Court will allow an Idaho pro-life law to stand following challenges from the Biden administration.
The blocked Biden administration lawsuit would have required emergency room doctors to perform abortions on the grounds of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act. However, the Supreme Court ruled that this attempt was an abuse of federal power, and the Biden administration cannot overturn Idaho’s pro-life laws.
In another recent case, State of Texas v. Becerra, the Supreme Court ruled similarly to favor Texas’ pro-life laws over the Biden administration’s attempts to override them.
Idaho has restrictive abortion laws but does allow for a mother whose life is at risk to be treated. As a Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America press release explained, “Like every state with strong pro-life laws, Idaho and Texas allow timely and necessary care for pregnant women in an emergency; that has not changed.”
LifeSite News shared a quote from Erin Hawley, the wife of Sen. Josh Hawley, in reaction to the case. She explained: “Emergency room physicians can, and do, treat ectopic pregnancies and other life-threatening conditions. But elective abortion is not life-saving care — it ends the life of the unborn child — and the government has no authority to override Idaho’s law barring these procedures.”
