US Supreme Court preserves access to abortion pill mifepristone

The U.S. Supreme Court rejected a bid by anti-abortion groups and
doctors to restrict access to the abortion pill, handing a victory on
Thursday to President Joe Biden's administration in its efforts to
preserve broad access to the drug.

The justices, two years after ending the recognition of a
constitutional right to abortion, ruled in a 9-0 decision authored by conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh to overturn a lower court's
decision to roll back Food and Drug Administration steps in 2016 and
2021 that eased how the drug, called mifepristone, is prescribed and distributed.
