"Argentina's Top Court Halts Milei's Labour 'Mega-Decree', Casting Shadow on Reform Agenda"

Argentina's top court has suspended a 'mega-decree' of over 300 labour reforms introduced by President Javier Milei, following a legal challenge by the General Labour Confederation. The reforms, which included extending probation periods and reducing severance compensation, were deemed by the court to exceed the administration's authority as they bypassed Congress. Milei's government plans to appeal the decision. The president, who took office on December 10, has already implemented significant economic changes, including a 50% devaluation of the currency and cuts to subsidies, aiming to reshape the economy and reduce the state's size amidst high poverty and inflation rates.

The CGT has called for a nationwide strike on January 24 in protest of the reforms.

"Federal Court Limits Abortion Protections, Escalating Red State Risks and Legal Battles"

A federal appeals court has ruled that Texas doctors are not obligated to perform emergency abortions, despite federal guidance under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA). This decision challenges the Biden administration's efforts to ensure abortion access in emergencies, following the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Texas law currently criminalizes performing or attempting an abortion, with limited exceptions for medical emergencies and fatal fetal diagnoses. The ruling has significant implications for abortion access and the ability of doctors to use their medical judgment in emergency situations without fear of prosecution.
