The Supreme Court Restores Access to Muffa-Pristone for Medication Abortion

Justice Samuel Alito stepped into temporarily block lower courts decisions to impose restrictions on Muffa-Pristone, a pill used for medication abortion. The measure is essentially a pause on the Texas judges ruling last week to avoid the drugs approval by the Food and Drug Administration. It also overrides the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals attempt late Wednesday to curb access to the drug. At least for now, assuming you're in a state that is with us in the modern era, then this drug is available to you. But it could continue to be distributed by mail and taken up to the 10th week of pregnancy at least until midnight April 19th when the temporary hold will expire.
