(Worthy News) – The United States Supreme Court is set to rule this year on whether the federal government can force emergency room physicians to carry out abortions, CBN News reports. Under the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, physicians in hospital emergency rooms are required to stabilize patients with medical care; the Biden administration argues this should include abortion.

The current case arose after numerous lawsuits were filed by women in states where abortion has been restricted or banned who said they were not allowed terminations despite having dangerous complications in their pregnancy, CBN reports. Earlier this a federal appeals court in Texas – where abortion is highly restricted – ruled that emergency room physicians are not required to carry out abortions.

Among states which have almost completely banned abortion, some allowance has been made for “medical emergencies.” The Supreme Court will now have to rule on what a medical emergency actually is.

In a statement to CBN News, Dr. Susan Bane, a board member of the American Association of Pro-life Obstetricians and Gynecologists (AAPLOG) said clarification is essential.”It is the responsibility of hospital systems, the legal system to make sure that doctors and health care practitioners really understand the law because we’re not attorneys,” Bane said.

“The most common ones we see are pre-term ruptured membranes but also hemorrhage, and then high blood pressure that’s severe enough – something called preeclampsia or eclampsia,” Bane added. “When we intervene for medical emergencies, we can do it without an abortion. We can separate the mom and the baby, but our intention is to hopefully have two living individuals when we’re done.”

It's sad that in a country that guarantees a persons right to live in accordance with his religious beliefs that a doctor would have to go all the way to the Supreme Court to ask permission to live by his religious principles and not have government force him to violate them.

Shalom, @NConly.

Sorry, but your statement 

On 3/11/2024 at 3:20 PM, NConly said:

abortions are not emergencies

is not necessarily correct. There ARE some situations where the life of the child may be sacrificed for the life of the mother. A couple may have another child, but not if the mother dies, and the child will not have the love of the mother's care if the child survives the mother's death.

Sometimes, the doctors may rule that it's an "either ... or" situation, where it comes down to the life of one must be sacrificed for the life of the other.

On the other hand, it should NOT be required by law to make such decisions! Nor should it lie in the hands of the doctor! It must be the will of the parents, preferably under the guidance of the Ruwach haQodesh Elohiym (the Holy Spirit of God), to make this decision, and the decision should NOT be made lightly! Occasionally, it may be the choice of BOTH parents to sacrifice the mother's life for the sake of the child's life. Sometimes, it may be the will of the parents to try again in the future, and say REVERENTLY AND WITH MUCH SORROW AND REGRET to say good-bye to the child and end the life of the child, who would not make it through the birth anyway! 

Again, this should NOT be left up to the courts to decide! Each situation is DIFFERENT AND UNIQUE! Only by much prayer and seeking God's will should such a decision be made! However, in ALL cases, the life of the child should be VALUED and RESPECTED as a gift from God that should NEVER BE TAKEN LIGHTLY!

Just some things to think about BEFORE we make this a court matter!

The real question here would, should, be centered around when a life actually begins.

A Jewish view is that life begins at birth and that the soul is not involved in the developing fetus until 40 days after conception, A Christian view would be that life begins at conception and from that point on is a living human no matter the stage of development, and a secular view would be that it doesn't make any difference since convenience of the mother is all that matters and trying to ban abortion -at any point- is, as AOC says, trying to control woman's right to recreational sex without consequence.

Removing a dead or dying child after a miscarriage is not abortion in any of these senses, there is not guilt, shame, or innocence involved in this.  It is just an essential medical procedure to save the life of the mother after the child has been lost, I don't know of any medical personnel that would disagree with this or any laws anywhere that would prevent it.

But the article has to do with forcing doctors and nurses to violate their religion by forcing them to perform abortions when they cannot do it and remain faithful to their religious beliefs which is something the Constitution guarantees as an inalienable right.

It is best to keep this in mind before making enemies of each other.

Well so what? Was my uncles cancer not an emergency because he scheduled to have it removed?

When my husband died the shock caused me to have a miscarriage. I had to go to the emergency room because I was bleeding internally and if left, would had gone septic. Now the fetus was still technically alive but there was no way to save it and I would have died also. In Ireland where abortion was banned, women died because of this including Savita Halappanavar. In your own country, especially Texas, women have been told to go wait in their cars until they're dying because the doctors don't want to be arrested. In Ohio a 10 year old rape victim had to flee the state to get a pregnancy terminated because a preteen can die just carrying a pregnancy, as they aren't physically capable.

Maybe perhaps you should look this stuff up before making conclusions.

we were talking abortion get on subject.

I think that should be considered on subject since that is a part of what is being discussed here and relates directly to what she was forced to go through by no fault of her own.

Just an observation, not a judgment.  May we all be blessed with an understanding of each other.

https://www.hli.org/resources/what-percentage-of-abortions-are-medically-necessary/Abortions performed to preserve the life or the health of the mother are so rare that they do not register statistically, according to Alan Guttmacher of Planned Parenthood, who did more to promote and spread abortion on demand throughout the world than any other individual. In 1967 he commented, “Today it is possible for almost any patient to be brought through pregnancy alive, unless she suffers from a fatal disease such as cancer or leukemia, and if so, abortion would be unlikely to prolong, much less save the life.”
