WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jim Risch (R-Idaho) released the following statement after the Supreme Court dismissed the case of Moyle v. United States American and Idaho v. United States of America. Risch, with the rest of the Idaho congressional delegation submitted an amicus brief supporting the State of Idaho in defending its pro-life law, the Defense of Life Act.
“When the Supreme Court released its decision in Dobbs in 2022, the Court returned the power to determine abortion laws to the states. That is exactly what Idaho chose to do with our strong pro-life legislation. With legislative leaders in the Gem State, we will continue to fight to protect the lives of the unborn, women, and families.”
