HOYLE RESPONSE TO U.S SUPREME COURT DISMISSING IDAHO AND MOYLE ABORTION CASE

WASHINGTON, DC— Today U.S. Representative Val Hoyle (OR-04), a proud member of the Congressional Pro-Choice Caucus, released the following statement after the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed the Moyle v. United States and Idaho v. United Statescase, temporarily upholding the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA):

“The U.S. Supreme Court punted the decision on whether abortions can be provided when the mother’s life or health is in danger to a lower court. Weshould not be lulled into a false sense of security by this decision. What is clear is thatMAGA Republicans will not stop until access to reproductive health care is banned nationwide — and women will die if and when that happens.

“No doctor should ever be afraid that they will lose their medical license or be jailed if they provide life saving medical services to a patient.”
