Federal judge suspends FDA approval of abortion pill
A federal judge has suspended the FDA's approval of the abortion pill mifepristone.
In a case that could reshape pregnancy in America, a federal judge on Friday sided with anti-abortion groups seeking a nationwide ban on abortion pills, ruling that the Food and Drug Administration acted improperly in approving mifepristone in 2000. The ruling will go into effect in seven days if a stay is not granted by an appeals court or by the Supreme Court.
The ruling could affect people in every state, including those where abortion access is protected.
