After leaving pregnant Idaho women in the lurch for months, the Supreme Court chose to send Idaho v. United States and Moyle v. United States back to the lower courts, leaving the door open for new attacks on reproductive freedom after the 2024 election. Stand Up America’s Executive Director, Christina Harvey, issued the following statement on today’s decision:“The Roberts Court’s decision to take up Idaho v. United States endangered the lives of pregnant Americans and did irreparable harm.

If Trump is elected again, he will appoint even more justices who could uphold future abortion bans and endanger our fundamental freedoms for decades.“With the future of our fundamental freedoms on the line, we will be mobilizing millions of Americans to turn out this year as Supreme Court voters and re-elect President Biden. That is the only way we can stop Trump from appointing even more right-wing justices who will impact abortion access and our other fundamental freedoms for decades to come.
