The Supreme Court said Friday that it will decide whether emergency room doctors can perform medically necessary abortions in states that prohibit them, bypassing the court of appeals to resolve on an expedited basis a lawsuit brought by the United States against Idaho.
It’s the second major abortion case the court will consider this year amid the fallout from the reversal of Roe v. Wade in 2022. The justices are already set to hear a case about access to the abortion drug mifepristone – even in states where the procedure is legal.
Idaho’s Defense of Life Act is a near total ban on abortion, but there is an exception to prevent the mother’s death. The law imposes penalties on doctors who perform prohibited abortions unless the “physician determined in good faith medical judgement and based on the facts known to the physician at the time, that the abortion was necessary to prevent the death of the pregnant woman.” Physicians who violate the law could face criminal penalties and risk the suspension of their licenses.
I honestly can't grasp how absolutely rotten, evil and braindead someone must be to think that they have the moral high ground if they force doctors to let a pregnant woman die (and thus also the embryo/fetus she is pregnant with) instead of letting them use a simple procedure to save a least one life.
No abortion means that both the woman and the embryo/fetus die.
An abortion means that the woman lives.
How is option A the more moral choice?
It just shows that the only thing these people care about is controlling, punishing and murdering women.
"The baby is dead either way, but you know what? Let's let the woman die for no reason, too, just because we can. That'll show those bitches!"
Women should mass migrate from The U.S. We need young workers in Scandinavia.
Come here!
I wish for the best to women and girls in America.
Abortion is actually illegal in my country, but there are legal exceptions and license won't be revoked for offering and providing "hush hush" abortion services when a woman want it for any reason. What's happening in America is mind blowing.
