Abortion pill debate heats up in courts and politics.

A federal appeals court judge questioned the FDA's use of an expedited process to approve the abortion pill mifepristone more than 20 years ago, stating that pregnancy is not a serious illness and asking if Mother's Day is "celebrating illness." The case ended up before the appeals court panel after a federal judge in Texas suspended the drug's approval last month, finding that the FDA had improperly rushed its authorization in 2000. The Supreme Court has temporarily preserved the status quo, leaving mifepristone available as the case runs its course.
