In case you missed it: Our acting co-CEO Destiny Lopez testified before the US Senate on June 4, 2024, on the state of abortion access since the Dobbs decision. As she made clear, we need urgent policy action to guarantee the full spectrum of reproductive health care for all. More: https://gu.tt/4e2LmSN

Today, the Supreme Court decided unanimously to uphold access to and regulatory approval of a safe and effective prescription drug that is used, among other things, to perform first term abortions. Reality and sanity prevailed. In case you haven’t heard, there was a real danger in this case that not only would reproductive freedoms be sharply curtailed, but also the regulatory power of the FDA would be restricted or eliminated. If the lower court ruling had stood, these fever dreams of the most ardent Christian nationalists in the current Republican Party would have come true. All because the Trump Administration had appointed a single, massively unqualified, radical right federal judge to a small court in Texas where he was the only arbiter of whatever he called justice. Because of this case, the federal judiciary changed their policies in assigning judges, so that petitioners can no longer “judge shop” and bias the outcome with judges like this one. Because of this case, we have finally found some modicum of unanimity even on this fractured Supreme Court. But also, do not for one minute think that if Trump is president again and the current Republicans running win the Senate back, that he would not take the opportunity to appoint justices that make Kavanaugh look like RBG in comparison, and force a different decision next year. Sanity prevailed today. There is a very real danger it would not ever again, if the Republican Party as it currently stands wins big in November. Let this peek over the edge of the cliff motivate you into action. It’s time to get to work.
Today, the Supreme Court preserved access to abortion medication, throwing out legal challenges from those who would restrict access to reproductive health care. This is an important victory in the fight for women’s health. ¡La Lucha Sigue!
