Supreme Court rules that abortion pills are legal. Plus: Southern Baptist Convention’s resolution regarding the use of in vitro fertilization (IVF)

Rather, they were considering changes to how the drug was obtained and administered, deciding instead that “the federal courts are the wrong forum for addressing the plaintiffs’ concerns about FDA’s actions.”

But before we get into what the decision means and where it might lead, let’s start by talking a bit more about mifepristone and why this case was so important. More Here
