A federal appeals court late on Wednesday blocked part of a ruling issued last week by a Trump-appointed judge that endangers access to the abortion pill mifepristone.

Texas Mifepristone Ruling Threatens Abortion Access in States Where Procedure Is Legal, Attorneys General Say

The two judges who voted to tighten restrictions, Kurt Engelhardt and Andrew Oldham, are both appointees of former President Donald Trump. The third judge, Catharina Haynes, is an appointee of former President George W. Bush. She said she would have put the lower court ruling on hold entirely temporarily to allow oral arguments in the case.

The lawsuit challenging mifepristone's approval was brought by the Alliance Defending Freedom, which was also involved in the Mississippi case . At the core of the lawsuit is the allegation that the FDA’s initial approval of mifepristone was flawed because the agency did not adequately review safety risks.

Antiabortion group says appeals court lacks authority to block Texas abortion pill rulingThe Justice Department has said it will ask the Supreme Court to intervene in the case if necessary. 'the six months since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, there were 5,377 fewer abortions on average per month, according to a new report.' Every 4 months, you could overfill Madison Square Garden with all of the babies that werent killed. Anybody else find it utterly ironic & hypocritical that an deplorable organization calling itself the “Alliance Defending Freedom” is facilitating the destruction of a woman’s freedom? I guess you could say, they are defending the freedom….of wife beaters & rapists. ProChoice keep dreaming
