The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to allow emergency abortions in Idaho, dismissing the state’s appeal against a lower court’s decision. The law permits emergency abortions to protect maternal health, with exceptions for cases of rape and incest in the first trimester. The Biden administration contested the law, citing conflicts with federal regulations like the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA), which mandates emergency rooms to provide necessary care, including abortion if required.
