The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on the Idaho Defense of Life Act, frequently referred to as the Trigger Law, on Wednesday—and things got so heated that the hearing that was set for one hour nearly ran for two.
The Moyle v. United States case heard is the result of a power grab by the Biden Administration on the issue of abortion.
According to the Biden administration, the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) compels emergency room physicians to offer abortions that are not necessary to save the life of the mother. But this novel interpretation conflicts with the plain language of EMTALA, which is silent on the question of whether and when hospitals should provide abortions. Notably, the term “abortion” appears nowhere in the statutory text, and the law expressly instructs hospitals to treat preborn children as patients in emergency situations.
Blaine Conzatti, President of Idaho Family Policy Center, joined Kevin Miller on KIDO radio Thursday morning. They broke down the details of the case, why the Biden Administration targeted Idaho in the first place, and what the Supreme Court decision on this case could mean for the pro-life movement as a whole.
