Did Iowa Republicans make it harder for doctors to save mothers by aborting their babies during a "medical emergency"?
That idea is "going around", I learned Monday, October 28, while doorknocking for State Representative Eddie Andrews.
I asked Eddie about it later. He said Republicans have done the opposite: after consulting doctors for the law language most favorable to their freedom from liability, they made it so doctors are free from legal scrutiny by simply stating that in their medical judgment there is a "medical emergency". Republicans regard that as an easily abused loophole, but they are willing to suffer it for the benefit of doctors.
My wife heard the same point made on WHO radio the same day, although she doesn't remember who made it.
I checked the bill and the law. Sometimes one may understand how two opposite reports flew out from the same source, by actually reading the original source.
