Condemn undermining EMTALA, uphold medical ethics and patient rights.

To: Rep. Green, Sen. Cornyn, Sen. Cruz

From: A verified voter in Houston, TX

March 4

The Trump administration's stance on the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act case in Iowa raises grave concerns. This federal law explicitly mandates that hospitals provide emergency medical care, including abortion procedures when the life of the pregnant person is at risk. By urging violation of this critical patient protection, the administration is actively undermining established legal safeguards and jeopardizing lives. This brazen disregard for medical ethics and human rights warrants swift condemnation and remedial action to uphold the integrity of the EMTALA. We urge a course correction that respects medical expertise, ethical obligations, and the sanctity of life over partisan interference in healthcare decisions.
