Need a breakdown of the recent ruling on nationwide mifepristone access at the Supreme Court? Listen to @rePROsFightBack's latest podcast episode here: https://t.co/crjuCCqIl8.

[Population Institute @PopInstitute]

Last week, SCOTUS extended an order that providers can continue telehealth prescription and mail delivery of mifepristone after the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals had blocked a policy allowing patients to obtain mifepristone online and through the mail.

[Population Institute @PopInstitute]

The Louisiana v. FDA case will now be sent back to the Fifth Circuit for full briefing and arguments. The case will likely make its way back to the Supreme Court for a final ruling on the merits.

Femicide refers to the intentional killing of women or girls because of their gender. The impact of #femicide is disproportionate, due to a long history of colonization and systemic oppression. Indigenous women and girls face some of the highest levels of violence in the country.
