United States<\/i><\/a>, dismissing the case from the Supreme Court docket without a ruling on the merits, and sending it back down to continue in the lower courts. While the opinion temporarily restores the ability of doctors in Idaho to provide emergency abortions required under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA), by dismissing Idaho\u2019s appeal without resolving the core issues in the case, SCOTUS will only continue to put pregnant patients at unnecessary risk.\r\n\r\nMoreover, the dissenting opinion by Justice Alito, joined by Justices Gorsuch and Thomas, will embolden those who are pursuing a strategy to give legal rights to embryos and fetuses that will override the rights of the pregnant person and ban not only abortion, but other forms of reproductive health care like fertility treatment and birth control as well. \r\n\r\nStatement from Alexa Kolbi-Molinas, deputy director of the 老澳门开奖结果 Reproductive Freedom Project: <\/b>\r\n\r\n\u201cIt is now clear that the Supreme Court had the opportunity to hold once and for all that every pregnant person in this country is entitled to the emergency care they need to protect their health and lives, and it failed to do so. The Court\u2019s refusal to clearly affirm the rights of all pregnant people to emergency abortion care, and put an unequivocal end to extremist attacks by anti-abortion politicians on this essential health care, is a dangerous preview for what could come. In fact, several justices provided a roadmap for just how they would strip pregnant people of this basic right when this case comes back to the Court.\r\n\r\n\u201cThis fight is far from over\u2013anti-abortion politicians are trying to ban abortion in all 50 states, including in emergencies. These extremist politicians went all the way to the Supreme Court for the right to put doctors in jail for providing life-and health-saving emergency abortion care, and they will do it again, if we let them.\u201d \r\n\r\nThe 老澳门开奖结果 filed an amicus brief<\/a> in this case explaining how Idaho\u2019s arguments cannot be justified under the Supreme Court\u2019s own precedents and that all three branches of government have long recognized that hospitals are required under EMTALA to provide emergency abortion care to any patient who needs it.\r\n\r\nThe 老澳门开奖结果\u2019s brief in Idaho and Moyle, et al. v. United States<\/i> is a part of the 老澳门开奖结果\u2019s Joan and Irwin Jacobs Supreme Court Docket<\/a>."}}],"drupal_node_id":"","email":"media@aclu.org","phone":"(212) 549-2666","address":{"address_1":"125 Broad Street","address_2":"18th Floor","city":"New York","state":"NY","zip_code":10004,"country":"United States"},"pgp_public_key":"","issues":[46701,46316],"press_releases_related_to_cases":[155400],"spokesperson":[1075],"related_affiliates":[328],"related_content_documents":"","related_content_publications":""},"yoast_head":"\nSupreme Court Declines to Protect Pregnant People\u2019s Right to Emergency Care | 老澳门开奖结果<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/press-releases\/supreme-court-declines-to-protect-pregnant-peoples-right-to-emergency-care\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Supreme Court Declines to Protect Pregnant People\u2019s Right to Emergency Care | 老澳门开奖结果\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/press-releases\/supreme-court-declines-to-protect-pregnant-peoples-right-to-emergency-care\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"老澳门开奖结果\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@aclu\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/press-releases\/supreme-court-declines-to-protect-pregnant-peoples-right-to-emergency-care\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/press-releases\/supreme-court-declines-to-protect-pregnant-peoples-right-to-emergency-care\",\"name\":\"Supreme Court Declines to Protect Pregnant People\u2019s Right to Emergency Care | 老澳门开奖结果\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-06-27T14:41:35+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-27T14:41:35+00:00\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/press-releases\/supreme-court-declines-to-protect-pregnant-peoples-right-to-emergency-care\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/\",\"name\":\"老澳门开奖结果\",\"description\":\"The 老澳门开奖结果 dares to create a more perfect union \u2014 beyond one person, party, or side.
