The Impact of the Supreme Court on Abortion Rights

The podcast discusses the significant impact of the Supreme Court's recent rulings on abortion rights. Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, a Trump-appointed federal judge suspended the FDA's approval of a widely used abortion drug, potentially leading to a nationwide ban. The case involving MIFA-Pristone is now at the Supreme Court, with implications for medication abortion accessibility and potential challenges to FDA drug approvals based on ideological grounds.
