"Supreme Court Grapples with Abortion Pill Access in Landmark Case"

The US Supreme Court appears unlikely to limit access to the abortion pill as it hears arguments in an appeal by President Joe Biden's administration of a lower court's ruling in favor of anti-abortion groups and doctors challenging the drug's prescription and distribution. Justices expressed skepticism about the plaintiffs' legal standing to pursue the case, with conservative members highlighting existing federal laws protecting medical personnel from being forced to perform or assist in abortions. The case, which places reproductive rights back on the Supreme Court's agenda in a presidential election year, is expected to have a ruling by the end of June.
