STAT+: Competing abortion pill rulings sow broad alarm, confusion
Competing rulings on the abortion pill from judges in Texas and Washington on the abortion pill mifepristone have created broad alarm and confusion.
Emma Hernandez is defiant even if she fears what may come in the latest stage of the nation’s fight over abortion: a widening prohibition to safe and legal ways to end unwanted pregnancies, including access to abortion pills.
Competing rulings by two federal judges over the availability of the abortion drug mifepristone are sowing alarm and confusion for Hernandez and countless other Americans who insist that availability must be guaranteed. Others celebrated one judge’s ruling that would restrict that access but acknowledge the battle is far from over.
