Court's Indecisiveness on Abortion Case in Idaho
The chapter covers the court's potential leak of a major abortion case decision in Idaho, involving the MTALA law mandating emergency care, including abortions, at federally funded hospitals. The conservative supermajority's skepticism during oral arguments leads to a decision to punt the case with a rare 'dig,' possibly due to political motivations and electoral implications. Discussion points include a dissenting opinion, the timing of court decisions, and the persistent importance of abortion in public discourse.
