President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump have offered contrasting responses to the Supreme Court's recent ruling on the abortion pill mifepristone. On Thursday, the Court ruled unanimously to uphold access to the pill, a decision that maintains the status quo but does little to quell the ongoing debate over reproductive rights in the United States.
President Biden stopped short of celebrating the ruling, instead framing it within the broader struggle for reproductive freedom. According to The Hill, Biden said, "Today's decision does not change the fact that the fight for reproductive freedom continues. It does not change the fact that the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade two years ago, and women lost a fundamental freedom."
