Pregnant woman on life support at Emory raises legal, ethical questions

from WABE's Week In Review · host WABE

An Emory University Hospital patient declared "brain dead" remains on a ventilator to sustain her pregnancy, and Atlanta health providers and advocates are speaking out saying Georgia's six-week abortion law is forcing this decision. Plus, Governor Brian Kemp joined members of the Public Service Commission to advocate for a deal that would pause electricity rate increases right before the Commission’s long-awaited election. And Atlanta art organizations are reeling as the National Endowment for the Arts cancels funding. Also we look at Congress cutting billions in funding and how that could impact hundreds of thousands of Medicaid recipients in Georgia.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
