Washington State Prepares for Abortion Pill Demand Ahead of Court Ruling

TL;DR Summary
Washington State has purchased a three-year supply of the generic version of mifepristone, a leading abortion medication, in anticipation of a court ruling that could limit its availability. The awaited ruling in a Texas lawsuit brought by a Christian group would affect states where abortion is legal as well as those that outlaw it. The bulk pill purchase also comes as Washington state Attorney General Bob Ferguson pursues the issue from another angle: He’s helping to lead a multistate lawsuit in federal court meant to further ease restrictions to the medication.
