RSBI:HUMAN-RIGHTS,RULES:ABORTION,RHPI:LEGISLATION

A lawyer for the state of Idaho on Tuesday urged a federal appeals court to revive a 2023 state law making it a crime to help a minor cross state lines for an abortion without her parent's consent, which a lower court judge had blocked in November.

Laurie Woodward Garcia from Tampa, Florida, holds a placard during a "die-in" protest in support of reproductive rights and emergency abortion care, as Supreme Court justices hear oral arguments over the legality of Idaho's Republican-backed, near-total abortion ban in medical-emergency situations, in Washington, U.S., April 24,...

"It prohibits strange adults from recruiting, harboring or transporting unemancipated minors within Idaho to procure an abortion, but only when that act is done with the specific intent to conceal it from the unemancipated minor's parents or guardians.

McKeown asked several questions during the argument questioning how transporting someone could be speech protected by the First Amendment.
