Federal Appeals Court Blocks Abortion Pill Access by Mail
A federal appeals court has temporarily blocked the mailing of mifepristone, a medication used in abortion procedures. The ruling affects access to abortion services across the US.
The FDA had approved the rule allowing women to obtain the medication by mail. However, the appeals court has put this rule on hold until further notice.
The decision was made by an appeals court, which is part of the federal judiciary system. The court’s ruling will have implications for abortion access in the US.
The FDA and other organizations are working to understand the impact of the court’s decision.
