This chapter covers a breaking news story about the Supreme Court's accidental release of an opinion hinting at possible approval of emergency abortions in Idaho, raising questions about its implications for abortion laws in different states and the balance between federal and state regulations.
The US Supreme Court is poised to allow abortions in medical emergencies in Idaho, according to a copy of the opinion that was briefly posted on the court’s website. Bloomberg Law obtained a copy of the opinion, which would reinstate a lower court order that had ensured hospitals in the state could perform emergency abortions to protect the health of the mother. Bloomberg Law Host June Grasso and Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel explain the decision to Bloomberg's Kailey Leinz and Joe Mathieu.
