Submit ReviewOver the weekend, U.S. District Judge Matthew J. Kacsmaryk blocked the FDA’s approval of mifepristone, a drug used for medication abortion. The FDA had approved the drug back in 2000, but Judge Kacsmaryk ruled the decision to be invalid.
Less than an hour later, U.S. District Judge Thomas O. Rice issued an opposing decision, ordering the FDA to maintain access to mifepristone.
State-by-state tumult over abortion was all but guaranteed by the Dobbs decision. But what does this latest federal court ruling mean for a state like Michigan, where abortion has been codified in the state Constitution?
