For the First Time Since overturning roe versus wade, the justices at the Supreme Court today Hearing Arguments about idahos near total abortion ban. What happens if a woman in desperate need seeks help in the e. R. . Heres rachel scott. Reporter tonight, for the First Time Since overturning roe versus wade, the Supreme Court weighing the impact of one of the new state abortion bans. Whether hospitals in idaho, which has a near total ban, can refuse to provide abortions in an emergency, if the health of a woman is at serious risk. If a woman comes to an Emergency Room facing a grave threat to her health, but she isnt yet facing death, doctors either have to delay treatment and allow her condition to materially deteriorate, or theyre airlifting her out of the state so she can get the Emergency Care that she needs. Reporter the Justice Department today arguing that if a Womans Health is at risk, federal law mandates that they receive Emergency Care, even if that means an abortion. The liberal justices on the court all women making it clear idaho is putting doctors and patients in untenable positions. Within these rare cases, theres a significant number where the womans life is not in peril, but shes going to lose her reproductive organs. Reporter but many of the conservative justices on the court seemed inclined to support idahos position. Justice samuel alito noting the federal law mandating Emergency Care also cites a responsibility to an unborn child. The statute imposes on the hospital a duty to the woman certainly and also a duty to the child. And it doesnt tell the hospital how it is to adjudicate conflicts between those interests, and it leaves that to state law. Reporter still, even among tconservatives, there was some concern about idahos position. In one remarkable moment, Justice Amy Coney barrett a staunch opponent of Abortion Rights exclaimed she was shocked by idahos argument that women in crisis could be refused an abortion in an Emergency Room on a case by case basis. It is very case by case. The examples, the thats the problem, isnt it . Counsel, im kind of shocked actually because i thought your own expert had said below that these kinds of cases were covered. Yeah. And youre now saying theyre not . No, im not saying that. Thats just my point, your honor, is that well, youre hedging. Reporter a decision on that case is expected in june. Meanwhile, tomorrow, the justices will consider whether or not former President Donald Trump should have absolute immunity in his federal case surrounding his receive forts to try to overturn the 2020 election.
