The U.S. Federal Supreme Court unanimously ruled on June 13th to protect women's continued access to the oral abortion pill, marking the first major decision on abortion rights since the Court's ruling two years ago to terminate constitutional protection for abortions. Following the overturning of the Roe v. Wade law, the Biden administration took measures to expand access to oral abortion pills, allowing them to be obtained from certified retail pharmacies. Anti-abortion groups and Republicans have tried to restrict the use of oral abortion pills, leading to a legal battle that was recently resolved in favor of continuing pill availability. President Biden stated that this ruling does not change the fact that Roe v. Wade was overturned, and he pledged to ensure that women in every state can access necessary health care and urged Congress to restore protections for women as per Roe v. Wade's decision.
