The abortion extremism of the Biden administration will be on full display this week as President Joe Biden’s lawyers try to convince our nation’s highest court that a 38-year-old federal law requiring hospital emergency rooms to stabilize sick patients also includes an abortion mandate. 

The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act is the latest vehicle being used by Biden and the abortion lobby to overturn pro-life state laws and push for unrestricted abortions. EMTALA focuses on ensuring that patients who are in need receive care, and it extends that life-saving care to both a woman and her unborn child. It is an instance where the “unborn child” is explicitly recognized in federal code.
