Today the Supreme Court will hear Idaho v US to determine if the right to emergency care under EMTALA includes abortion when a woman’s life or health is at risk. As a physician-legislator, I know that EMTALA must include reproductive healthcare or women’s lives will be at risk.

Wow. WJ Ignoing the HUGE Supreme Court case this morning that will change ERcare for women. EMTALA. GOP is suing to be allowed to let pregnant woman DIE in emergency rooms. Washington Journal Greta Brawner

This SCOTUS EMTALA case is

pretty important

6 women have had to be airlifted from St. Luke's Boise to another state due to EMTALA since Jan when SCOTUS lifted the EMTALA exception from the abortion ban. That's unacceptable! #idleg #idpol #idgop

Women ARE being punished because Trump overturned Roe

The Supreme Court already ruled that some women can’t get emergency abortions

Even if it means they might LOSE ORGANS

And despite the fact that this violates the federal EMTALA law

Oral argument for the case is this week

All eyes on the #EMTALA case going before #scotus on Wednesday. An explainer involving a 🥔 because #idaho .

Medical airlift is expensive. This is going well. #EMTALA #SCOTUS

The Supreme Court will hear arguments later this week on the EMTALA case. Where Idaho is suing to be able to disregard federal law & deny pregnant patients emergency medical care.

The fact that the gop is fighting to be able to deny pregnant patients even emergency medical shows

EMTALA but make it Jeopardy

EMTALA is the law ensuring every American can access medical care for emergency situations regardless of ability to pay. If EMTALA protections can be denied for some life-threatening emergencies and some patients it will have disastrous consequences for healthcare in this country

On Wednesday, #SCOTUS will hear oral arguments in Idaho v. U.S., in which anti-abortion extremists will attempt to make it easier to ban emergency abortion care nationwide.

As people of diverse faiths and beliefs, we believe reproductive freedoms are religious freedoms.

#EMTALA

Today, Idaho will defend its pro-life law at #SCOTUS . @ADFlegal is honored to assist them.

This case in a nutshell: The Biden admin can't override Idaho’s law & force ER doctors to perform abortions.

There is no conflict between Idaho’s Defense of Life Act and EMTALA. Both laws

The #EMTALA case is the Biden administration’s attempt to further the lie that pregnant women cannot receive emergency care under pro-life laws.

We've fact-checked three dangerous lies that are putting women at risk and confusing doctors ⬇️

Oral arguments in the EMTALA case are this morning. Jessica Mason Pieklo and I will be on the 1's and 2's just like we've been for 10 years. Also make sure to check out Rewire News Group for other coverage on multiple platforms. And if you run into Christian Prins Coen (he/they) outside the Court, say hi!

EMTALA is imperfect and can be problematic. But it is one of the best protections we have and the reason it exists is so that human beings who need medical treatment can’t be denied based on biases. If it can’t protect everyone’s access to basic care then it can’t protect anyone.

'There are exceptions for the life of the mother', anti choicers frequently claim.

But if that were really true, then Idaho wouldn't be suing to specifically be able to disregard EMTALA & deny pregnant patients emergency care.

This is will be a paramount #SCOTUS case for Emergency Physicians. Whether #EMTALA preempts state laws that restrict abortion. Recall that traditionally the decision whether the Pt has an “emergency medical condition” (EMC) & is in need of stabilizing care is the sole province of the

More women’s health rights will be under scrutiny this week by the Supreme Court. Watch closely—Idaho V United States Since 1986 under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) which could be rescinded. #DemVoice1

If you're not terrified by what this SCOTUS might do to gut EMTALA, you should be

This 'K' bot/person is wrong. EMTALA forbids turning patients away for their inability to pay. This is all about Trump's SCOTUS overturning Roe and the draconian abortion bans that ensued.
