Abortion pill: new restrictions

The 5th circuit court of appeals ruled to put an end to easy access to mifepristone and thus the means to have a medicated abortion.

The 5 circuit includes Louisiana, Mississippi and part of Texas. The senators from those states are Republican, and due to the Senate's rule that judges appointed to that court must have the approval of at least one senator from those states, the judges on that court are right-wing extremists.

Therefore, right-wing extremists generally use those states to file their cases.

I hope that abortion rights activists continue to be able to obtain mifepristone pills and mail them to women who need them. But it may now be more difficult to do this.
