Here's what to know about the Supreme Court's move.
The abortion rights community and its allies in the Biden administration secured a striking victory from the conservative Supreme Court with an order Friday night that stopped restrictions on medication abortion drugs from taking effect.
What did the Supreme Court do on Friday?The Supreme Court handed a win to the defenders of the medication abortion drugs by pausing lower court rulings that would have disrupted access to the drug as a result from a lawsuit from anti-abortion doctors seeking to wipe away the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's two-decade old approval of mifepristone.
The dispute landed at the Supreme Court's doorstep after the 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals weighed in last week, and paused the parts of Kacsmaryk's ruling that would have suspended the approval while leaving undisturbed Kacsmaryk's move to also halt the FDA's subsequent efforts to make the drug easier obtain.
The case now travels back to the 5th Circuit, which has set an expedited briefing schedule to give a fuller review of Kacsmaryk's ruling. A three-judge panel from the 5th Circuit will hold a hearing on May 17 and issue another decision sometime after. What do we know about how the justices are thinking about the dispute?The Supreme Court did not show its cards in the order it issued Friday night.

The Supreme Court fight over an abortion pill: What's next?The Supreme Court initially gave itself a deadline of Wednesday to decide whether women seeking access to a widely used abortion pill would face more restrictions while a court case plays out. But on the day of the highly anticipated decision the justices had only this to say: We need more time. In a one-sentence order, the court said it now expects to act by Friday evening. There was no explanation of the reason for the delay. The new abortion controversy comes less than a year after the Supreme Court’s conservative majority overturned Roe v. Wade and allowed more than a dozen states to effectively ban abortion outright.
