English/ Español: Rubio Statement on June Medical Services, LLC v. Gee SCOTUS Decision
Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) released a statement after the Supreme Court issued a decision in June Medical Services, LLC v. Gee. The case was a challenge to a Louisiana abortion law, the Unsafe Abortion Protection Act, that requires physicians performing abortions to have admitting privileges, which is the ability to directly admit a patient into the hospital when emergencies arise, within thirty miles of the facility where the abortion is performed. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Louisiana’s law. On January 2, 2020, Rubio joined over 200 of his colleagues in Congress in filing an amicus brief in support of the Louisiana law.
“Today’s troubling decision is another recent ruling that veers sharply from the Founders’ intention of the role of the Judiciary: to interpret the law as it is written. The Left’s dangerous, continued assault on the right to life and a sympathetic judiciary content to legislate from the bench is a stain on our nation’s history. I will continue to do everything I can to protect the fundamental right to life for every person — born or unborn.”
RUBIO SOBRE LA DECISIÓN DE LA CORTE SUPREMA DE JUSTICIA EN EL CASO JUNE MEDICAL SERVICES, LLC V. GEE
Washington, D.C.- El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió un comunicado después que la Corte Suprema de Justicia emitiera una decisión en el caso June Medical Services, LLC v. Gee. El caso desafío una ley de aborto en el estado de Louisiana, llamada Unsafe Abortion Protection Act, la cual exige que los médicos que realizan abortos tengan privilegios de admisión, que es la capacidad de admitir a una paciente en un hospital cuando surgen emergencias, a treinta millas de la instalación donde se realiza el aborto. La Corte de Apelaciones del Quinto Circuito confirmó la ley de Louisiana. El 2 de enero del 2020, Rubio se unió a más de 200 de sus colegas en el congreso para presentar un amicus brief en apoyo de la ley de Louisiana.
“La preocupante decisión de hoy es otro fallo que se desvía drásticamente del rol que querían los padres fundadores que jugará el poder judicial en nuestro país: de interpretar la ley tal y como está escrita. El asalto peligroso por parte de la izquierda contra el derecho a la vida y un poder judicial que a sabiendas legisla desde la banca, es una mancha en la historia de nuestra nación. Continuaré haciendo todo lo posible para proteger el derecho fundamental a la vida de cada persona, nacida o no”.
