Abortion pill still allowed by mail in the USA

132

Women in the USA get the abortion pill by mail. The highest court decides this. The name is Supreme Court. It stops a ban from a smaller court. The drug name is Mifepristone. This drug ends a pregnancy.

Women order the drug on the internet. They do not visit a doctor. This is good for states with strict rules. Louisiana forbids most abortions. That state fights against the mail delivery.

A court in New Orleans wanted to stop the mail. The makers of the pill ask the Supreme Court for help. The judges vote 7 to 2 for the mail. Most women in the USA use this pill.

Since 2022 states decide about laws for abortion. Many states have very strict rules now. The mail delivery stays allowed for now. The court process continues later.
