Twelve Democratic-led states have filed a lawsuit in federal court to challenge restrictions on the abortion pill mifepristone, which is used in over half of U.S. abortions. An anti-abortion group in Texas has also filed a lawsuit seeking to restrict access to the drug, leading the Biden administration to prepare for a worst-case scenario. The lawsuit filed by the twelve Democratic-led states aims to ensure that mifepristone and misoprostol remain available to women who need them.
