The US Supreme Court has decided to maintain free access to the widely used abortion pill for now, suspending restrictions imposed by previous court decisions.
The Biden administration had appealed to the Supreme Court asking for the suspension of the restrictions and was vindicated, after the relevant requests from the Department of Justice and the pharmaceutical company Danco Laboratories were accepted.
Texas Judge Matthew Kasmeric – who was appointed by Republican former US President Donald Trump – initially suspended, at the federal level, the FDA’s approval of the mifepristone pill. Subsequently, the three-judge federal appeals court in New Orleans suspended the implementation of this decision, but maintained some of the restrictions: women wishing to use this pill would have to visit their doctor three times and not have passed the 7th week of pregnancy pregnancy At the same time, it was forbidden to send the medicine by post.
The US Supreme Court decision means that American women can safely take mifepristone pills for the medical termination of pregnancy.
US President Joe Biden did not hide his satisfaction with the Supreme Court’s decision, stressing that he will continue to fight “politically motivated attacks on women’s health”.
