President Joe Biden celebrated the Supreme Court‘s decision to throw out a challenge of the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the abortion pill, mifepristone, Thursday, doubling down on the “commitment” to protect reproductive rights.
The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that plaintiffs lacked standing to advance the challenge, leaving mifepristone available to be prescribed online or in person and shipped through the mail. The Biden administration recently expanded access to the drug to make it easier for women to obtain it following the 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health ruling and subsequent state abortion bans.
