On Thursday, the Supreme Court rejected a challenged restricting access to mifepristone, the first drug used in a medication abortion.
The court’s decision in the case U.S. Food and Drug Administration v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine ruled against Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, an organization of anti-abortion activists backed by the Christian right-wing lobbying group Alliance Defending Freedom, who brought the case forward, with Justice Brett Kavanaugh writing the opinion for a unanimous court.
