The Supreme Court has granted a Trump administration request to reinstate a rule requiring women to go in person to obtain abortion pills.
The nation’s top court voted 6–3 on Jan. 12. to remove a lower court’s preliminary injunction on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) rule that requires women to pick up the abortion medication mifepristone from a hospital, clinic, or medical office and to sign a disclosure form. Mifepristone, also known as Mifeprex, is usually taken together with the medication misoprostol in order to end pregnancies up to 10 weeks after conception.
