The Justice Department has filed a motion to dismiss a Biden-era lawsuit that sought to compel Idaho’s federally funded hospitals to provide abortions in medical emergencies. The case could have implications nationwide, as pregnant people with serious complications could be denied emergency care even if it’s expected to kill them. Idaho is one of 12 states that have imposed abortion bans since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022; another four states have banned abortions after six weeks of gestation.
