The Justice Department and a pharmaceutical company that makes the abortion pill mifepristone have asked the Supreme Court to step into the legal battle involving the drug.

but blocked a number of moves by the Food and Drug Administration that expanded its availability.

"The abrupt shift in the regulatory landscape that would be required by the lower courts' orders raises a host of unprecedented issues and has put FDA and regulated entities in an impossible position," the Justice Department said. The FDA also approved a generic version of mifepristone in 2019 and lifted a requirement that the pills be dispensed in-person in 2021, which allowed the drug to be prescribed by a provider during telemedicine appointments and sent by mail.

"The Justice Department strongly disagrees with the Fifth Circuit's decision in Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA to deny in part our request for a stay pending appeal," Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a Thursday, before the Justice Department formally made its request."We will be seeking emergency relief from the Supreme Court to defend the FDA's scientific judgment and protect Americans' access to safe and effective reproductive care.

The competing orders only inject further chaos and confusion into a legal landscape upended by the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe.

Just as the gop wants because the SupremeCourt is corrupted.

Democrats sure seem to be helping big pharma a LOT. They mandated their junky vaccine, raised insulin prices, and now they’re fighting for these baby murder pills. Geeze.

It never was about anti-abortion! It was always about imposing their far-right conservative holier-than-thou religious beliefs on the rest of US! It's about them wanting to strip away women's rights of self-determination & controlling if & when 'any woman can' have an abortion!

As they should

Democrats don't like democracy when it doesn't agree with them apparently

Big pharma gotta get that $$$ killing the babies!

Can’t count on the Supreme Court to do the right thing here.
