Senator Murray Responds to Supreme Court Allowing Idaho to Enforce Near-Total Abortion Ban Even in Emergency Situations While it Considers Appeal

Press Release

"The Supreme Court just gave Idaho the green light to throw health care providers in jail for providing emergency abortion care while it considers the case--this could threaten the health and lives of women throughout Idaho. This is a chilling reminder that the anti-abortion movement doesn't care if women live or die--as long as they are forced to give birth no matter what.

What we're seeing today is a direct consequence of Republicans decades-long crusade to roll back Roe and the protections women had enjoyed for decades--we must restore the right to abortion once and for all and put these decisions back in the hands of women and their doctors, not politicians."
