Supreme Court pauses abortion-pill access limits during emergency review

The Supreme Court issued an administrative stay Monday that preserves telehealth and mail access to the abortion pill mifepristone for now, keeping the current status quo through May 11 while emergency appeals from the drugmakers are reviewed after a Fifth Circuit ruling requiring in-person pickup. It’s not a final decision, but it delays a nationwide shift that could have restricted access as the justices reconsider FDA rules and related state bans amid broader abortion-rights changes.
