Remember when this was making the rounds awhile back? SCOTUS arguments today made me think of it. Also made me think it needs to be amended to include POTUS. Put an end to this b.s once and for all.

It is clear that we need to reform SCOTUS
Pay attention to your state's US Senate elections
In order to reform the court:
We need a large (& willing) enough Dem Senate majority to get it going
Do EVERYTHING (legal) you can to get Democrats elected to the US Senate seats from your state
It's critical

Is it a stretch to think that SCOTUS or the medical insurance industry as a whole might, if the SCOTUS rules against lifesaving abortions, take the next step and try to end EMTALA altogether? If they can refuse to treat miscarriages, what else will they decide not to treat? You know they will.

Helen @tener_duende

"Enacted in the 1980s to address “patient dumping,” EMTALA requires that hospitals that receive federal funds take steps to provide life-saving care to a patient in an emergency condition. After EMTALA, it was no longer lawful for a hospital to leave a patient suffering on the hospital steps..."

Will the Supreme Court Dump Women’s Lives and Futures *Again*? - Ms. Magazine

The Supreme Court will decide on EMTALA and how long a pregnant woman must wait to receive emergency care when her organs and life are in danger.
