New York AG said a new abortion-based ruling 'ensures that science is the guiding light for medical decisions and rulemaking.'

New York Attorney General Letitia James is celebrating a unanimous ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court that protects the popular abortion pill mifepristone from being federally restricted.The pill's continued availability was challenged by the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, which along with other anti-abortion groups, said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's regulations eased access to a drug used in more than 60 percent of U.S. abortions.

That was modified in 2021 when it eliminated the requirement for an in-person visit to a doctor.The coalition argued that the 'medically unnecessary restrictions' would lead to dangerous consequences for reproductive health care outcomes, particularly for low-income and underserved communities.
