US Supreme Court unanimously upholds FDA's approval of widely-used abortion pill, mifepristone.

The US Supreme Court has unanimously upheld the FDA's approval of the widely used abortion pill, mifepristone. The Court ruled that anti-abortion groups and doctors lacked a direct stake in the dispute, thus not meeting the requirement to challenge the FDA's approval. The decision preserves access to the medication, which was used in nearly two-thirds of all US abortions in 2020.
