Federal Court Blocks Mailing of Abortion Medication Across US

A federal appeals court has temporarily blocked the mailing of mifepristone, a medication used in medical abortions. The ruling affects abortion access across the US.

The FDA had previously approved a rule allowing women to obtain mifepristone by mail. However, an appeals court has now restricted this access.

The decision was made by a federal appeals court, which temporarily halted the implementation of the FDA’s rule on mifepristone. The ruling applies nationwide and affects abortion providers who use the medication in their procedures.

The court’s decision is expected to be appealed to the Supreme Court, where it may face further review.
