You have a district court that among other things relied on one study that was an analysis of anonymous blog posts. You have another set of studies that he relied on that were not in the administrative record and would never be, because they post-date the FDA decisions here. They have since been retracted for lack of scientific rigor, and for misleading presentations of data. Those sorts of errors can infect judicial analyses precisely because judges are not experts in statistics, they are not experts in the methodology used in scientific studies for clinical trials.

We discussed the retracted studies Ellsworth mentioned below. I also covered the anonymous blog post study that Kacsmaryk cited last year.

Mifepristone, which is generally taken with misoprostol, is both extremely effective and extremely safe, years of studies and use have shown.

Prelogar acknowledged that the doctor's case in Alitos hypothetical would represent past harm, and would potentially be able to be brought to a court. But, she made clear, there was simply no record of anything like that ever happening.

That situation has never come to pass, she said. Respondents havent identified any incident in more than 20 years that mifepristone has been available on the market that resembles that kind of hypothetical situation.

Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, centers on whether the Food and Drug Administration overlooked health and safety issues when it loosened restrictions around mifepristone, one of the two drugs used in medication abortion, in 2016 and 2021. The FDA approved mifepristone in 2000, and the medication has since been used by nearly 6 million people in the U.S., according to the department.

The ruling could roll back critical access to mifepristone, which is generally prescribed as part of a two-drug regimen alongside misoprostol for abortion and miscarriage care through 10 weeks of pregnancy in the U.S.

If the court sides with abortion opponents, mifepristone could be prohibited from being sent through the mail and distributed at large pharmacy chains, even in states where abortion is legal. A ruling for the anti-choice movement could also restrict the use of mifepristone from its current approval of 10 weeks to seven weeks, and end telehealth visits where abortion pills are prescribed.

The decision is likely to come out sometime in late June.","source":"","title":"What's At Stake For Abortion Access In The Mifepristone Case","type":"image","summary":"","badge":"","cta":[],"meta":null,"credit":"","creditUrl":"","authorship":{"author":{"id":"557703ade4b09499c4202c03","userId":"557703ade4b09499c4202c02","fullName":"Alanna Vagianos","bio":{"text":"Alanna Vagianos (she/her) is a senior national reporter at HuffPost.

You can count on Harris to mention oral arguments in the Supreme Court case. You can also count on Harris to talk about why reproductive rights are so important in North Carolina -- and not just because its a key swing state for the 2024 presidential election.

From my article about todays event:

Reproductive rights have been heavily contested in North Carolina, as they have been across the country, since the Supreme Court in 2022 overturned Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that had made access to abortion a federal right. A new state law, enacted after Republicans in the legislature overrode [Democratic Gov. Roy] Coopers veto, has introduced a series of restrictions and bans the procedure under most circumstances after 12 weeks of pregnancy.

In November, abortion rights advocates in the state hope to make gains in the legislature and, no less important, to defeat GOP gubernatorial nominee Mark Robinson, an outspoken right-wing politician who has called abortion a scourge and said he wants to push the limit on abortion to six weeks.
