This week, the American Civil Liberties Union
(ACLU) filed a federal lawsuit alleging mistreatment of a woman in
the days leading up to her miscarriage at a Catholic hospital in
Michigan. The ACLU accuses Mercy Health Partners of negligence for,
among other things, failing to direct Tamesha Means to a hospital
that could have safely terminated her nonviable pregnancy after her
water broke at only 18 weeks gestation. John K. Ross points out
that Means could not have easily gone to another hospital, perhaps
one offering the full range of women’s health services, because
there is no such hospital, thanks to a stupid law preventing
competing facilities from opening.
