BREAKING DOJ asks appeals court to stay Texas ruling against FDA abortion drug approval
"The district court’s extraordinary and unprecedented order should be stayed pending appeal," the DOJ wrote in a 20-page filing Monday afternoon."Plaintiffs lack standing to challenge FDA’s approval of a drug they neither take nor prescribe; their challenge to FDA actions dating back to 2000 is manifestly untimely; and they have provided no basis for second-guessing FDA’s scientific judgment," the filing added.
Texas-based U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk sided with anti-abortion groups on Friday, ruling the FDA's decades-old approval of mifepristone, the first drug commonly used to terminate a pregnancy through 10 weeks, should be suspended.
