A Texas federal judge Thursday ruled Idaho, Kansas and Missouri can join a case challenging access to the abortion pill.

Trump-appointed Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk allowed the states to pursue legal action in Texas that seeks to prohibit the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from allowing online prescriptions for Mifepristone over concerns that it could “undermine state abortion laws and frustrate state law enforcement,” according to court documents. A coalition of doctors previously challenged the FDA’s regulations of the pill due to concerns that several safety standards were ignored in order to rush its approval, but the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the FDA in 2024.

The American Association of Pro-Life OB-GYNS (AAPLOG) Action sent a letter Friday to GOP officials urging them to question President-elect Donald Trump’s nominees about their stance on late-term abortion and to investigate the safety of the abortion pill.

Kennedy Jr., Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

President Joe Biden bestowed the National Medal of Technology and Innovation on a vaccine maker that allegedly hid a child’s death in a COVID-19 clinical trial from Americans, and the Food and Drug Administration may have known about the purported subterfuge.
