from CNN Inside Politics · host CNN Podcasts
Abortion will certainly be a key issue in tonight's CNN debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

But they did not settle the big legal question at issue: whether federal guarantees for emergency medical care supersede Idaho's effort to impose an almost total abortion ban.
