Abortion Pill Maker Appeals To Supreme Court To Preserve Access After Lower Court Restrictions

  • The manufacturer of the abortion pill mifepristone has asked the Supreme Court to review restrictions imposed by a lower court ruling.
  • The restrictions include barring telemedicine prescriptions and mail delivery of mifepristone.
  • The Biden administration has also appealed to defend the existing federal approval of mifepristone, deemed safe and effective by medical organizations.
  • The Supreme Court's decision, expected by early summer 2024, will determine nationwide access to medication abortion.
  • This is the most high-profile abortion case since Roe v. Wade was overturned, carrying implications for reproductive rights.
