The Supreme Court on Tuesday seemed unlikely to limit access to #mifepristone, a key medication used in more than 60 percent of U.S. abortions and first approved more than two decades ago -WaPo #SCOTUS #legal
mifepristone
Not going to dignify the current U.S. Supreme Court with a careful legal analysis of today’s #mifepristone decision. But, especially for non-lawyers, it is worth explaining what the opinion does and does not do. It does not prevent future challenges to the FDA’s regulation of the drug; nor does it provide any substantive protection for #abortion access. It does somewhat limit right-wingers from using federal courts to control women’s bodies. 1/ #LawFedi #Standing

The #SupremeCourt on Thurs refused to limit access to a widely used #abortion #medication, rejecting a challenge from #antiabortion doctors 2 years after the court’s #conservative majority overturned #RoeVWade on procedural grounds.
