Abortion pills have been on a bit of a journey in the United States over the past few weeks.
The journey begins in Louisiana, where the state sued the Food and Drug Administration to ban access to mifepristone
through telehealth pills in the mail.
On May 1st, a district appeals court temporarily banned access to telehealth abortion and pills by mail nationwide.
So.
For a few days, a lot of people in the country were like.
But then the Supreme Court of the United States weighed in.
The Supreme Court has, at least for now, restored access.
But the Supreme Court wasn't finished.
They said, we'll have more for you on Monday, yesterday.
But then yesterday they said, actually, Thursday, and we'll see if that happens.
The Supreme Court said it would get out of the business of abortion after overturning Roe v. Wade, and they were wrong.
So while we wait for them to figure this out again.
We're going to talk about what's at stake on today's Explain from Vox.
