The U.S. Supreme Court has issued a decision in Moyle v. United States, dismissing the case as "improvidently granted." The lower court's pause on the Idaho law in question will remain in place while litigation continues. The National Right to Life was seeking a ruling on the merits, but the Court determined that further resolution is needed in the lower courts. The state of Idaho argued that the government's interpretation of EMTALA would make their pro-life law unenforceable and turn hospital emergency rooms into "federal abortion enclaves." However, the U.S. government clarified during arguments that they were not doing so. The National Right to Life hopes that the lower courts will uphold the Idaho law, which allows for care in cases of miscarriages, ectopic pregnancies, and medical emergencies.
