The Supreme Court will hear arguments Wednesday in a case that could determine whether doctors can provide abortions to pregnant women with medical emergencies in states that enact abortion bans. The Justice Department has sued Idaho over its abortion law, which allows a woman to get an abortion only when her life, not her health, is at risk. The Idaho law has raised questions about when a doctor is able to provide the stabilizing treatment federal law requires. The federal law is called the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, or EMTALA. EMTALA requires doctors to stabilize or treat any patient who shows up at an emergency room.
