What the Supreme Court ruling means for abortion access and what comes next
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of a recent Supreme Court ruling on abortion medication access.
The Supreme Court on Monday temporarily allowed continued nationwide access to abortion medication that's often distributed by mail. The court issued a one-week stay on a lower court's ruling that would have led to sweeping changes in how Mifepristone, one of the two drugs commonly used, can be prescribed.
