## Resource

The Supreme Court has ruled to keep mifepristone, a key abortion pill, accessible. The decision overturns a lower courts attempt to limit its distribution, allowing women to obtain it from pharmacies, by mail, or without in-person doctor visits. Despite dissent from Justices Thomas and Alito, the ruling stands, much to the dismay of anti-abortion groups who push for stricter regulations. The FDA Commissioner recently resigned amidst controversy, and the Trump administration remains silent. The lawsuit continues, ensuring access at least until next year, potentially longer with appeals. The administration navigates a delicate balance between its base and public opinion favoring abortion rights. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
