AP News! Good morning, I'm Ed Donahue. The Supreme Court is hearing arguments over whether state abortion bans enacted after its ruling overturning Roe vs. Wade can extend to medical emergencies. The case comes from Idaho, which is among 14 states that now ban abortion at all stages of pregnancy with limited exceptions. This is Justice Sonia Sotomayor. Subjective medical care requires you to treat women who present the potential of serious medical complications. And the abortion is the only thing that can print that in fact you have to do it. Idaho law says that Dr. has to determine not that there is merely a serious medical condition but that the person will die. This marks the first time the Supreme Court has considered a state ban since Roe was reversed. For the third straight week, Democrats in the Arizona legislature are attempting to repeal the state's near total ban on abortions. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced final rules to require airlines to automatically issue cash refunds for things like delayed flights and better disclose fees for baggage or canceling a reservation. When an airline knows that all, instead of just a few, of the passengers on a canceled flight, are likely to actually get their money back, it gives them a different set of reasons to put in the investment and the realistic scheduling that makes those cancellations less likely to happen to begin with. Under current regulations, airlines decide how long a delay must last before triggering refunds. Ukrainian officials are expressing thanks for a fresh batch of U.S. military aid.
