Today the Supreme Court is hearing arguments about a law in Louisiana that requires abortion doctors to have admitting privileges to local hospitals.
Pro-life proponents of the law, which is sponsored by Democratic Louisiana State Senator Katrina Jackson, argue this requirement protects women with emergency medical care in case of abortion complications. Pro-abortion advocates argue the law is simply a way to make it more difficult for women seeking abortions to obtain them from providers.
More on Jackson from Fox News:
As a pro-life Democrat, Louisiana State Sen. Katrina Jackson isnt an anomaly in her home state, but she is in Washington, D.C. And she wants to change that.
Jackson will be in the nations capital Wednesday, when the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on why her abortion clinic regulations requiring that doctors who perform the procedure have admitting privileges at local hospitals should pass constitutional muster. Her bill, she argued, should unify Democrats and Republicans behind a common interest in protecting women.
Its really a pro-womens health bill because Im not going to ignore those women, she told Fox News during an exclusive interview in January. Im not going to ignore their health care needs.
This is the first abortion case since new Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch, both nominated by President Trump, were confirmed by the Senate.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer attended a Planned Parenthood rally outside of the Court this afternoon and openly threatened Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. Over what? It's unclear.
Schumer: I want to tell you Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Gorsuch: You have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price. Alexandra DeSanctis (@xan_desanctis) March 4, 2020
Dear @SenSchumer:
Are you really threatening 2 Supreme Court justices before they rule on a case?
How will they pay the price?
What does this even mean?
If the Republican Senate leader did this = Scandal.
But, of course, most of the media will give Schumer a pass on this. https://t.co/68sE03WPyf Mike Davis (@mrddmia) March 4, 2020
Keep in mind Planned Parenthood receives more than $500 million in taxpayer funding each year.

Thanks New Yarkansans' voters for giving us great senators who are destined for hell and will no doubt reflect on your chances for redemption as well!
Chuck Schumer screams, for decades, that abortion is health care, yet he opposes requiring doctors who perform surgical removal of unborn children from inside their still pregnant mothers to have the authority to admit those same women to a hospital if there are complications from the procedure?
Sounds to me like Chuck is more interested in killing babies than his is protecting women's access to health care.
(I can't help but reflect on the apparent fact that there are only about six members of this forum. Why can't more members be recruited from FR?)
