Dear John,

Did you hear the news?

The Supreme Court just decided 6–3 to dismiss the case concerning whether Idaho’s pro-life law conflicts with a federal statute.

The Biden administration argued in Moyle v. United States that the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) superseded Idaho’s pro-life law in emergency situations.

But Idaho argues that the EMTALA doesn’t conflict with its legislation and that it already distinguishes between necessary (and fully legal) medical interventions and unlawful abortions.

Today, the Court didn’t decide on the merits of the case. Instead, they decided to leave it to the lower courts to resolve.

We had hoped for a definitive pro-life victory at the U.S. Supreme Court in the case, but we're grateful for the Court's analysis and optimistic that the matter will be resolved in Idaho's favor in the lower courts.

Idaho won substantial concessions from the Biden administration during the arguments and will be able to continue enforcing its law protecting the unborn in almost all circumstances as litigation continues.

We’ll continue to closely watch this case as it heads to the lower courts. We hope they’ll join us in affirming Idaho’s right to create meaningful laws that treat both the mother and her unborn child as patients worthy of care and respect.

Now and always, we’re so glad you’re with us.

Because everyone deserves an advocate,

Lois Anderson

Executive Director
