Supreme Court's Abortion Pill Ruling: Implications and Deadline Looms.

The Supreme Court is expected to rule on the legality of the abortion pill mifepristone, which could have sweeping ramifications for access to the drug. The Biden administration and the manufacturer of a brand-name version of mifepristone have asked the court to intervene and pause a ruling from a U.S. District Judge, while anti-abortion challengers want the 5th Circuit ruling to take effect. The decision could create "regulatory chaos" and put every FDA drug approval decision at risk of being challenged for political purposes. The court could also take up the case on its regular docket or do something completely different.
