The police also blocked traffic surrounding the court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The practical consequences of a ruling for abortion opponents would be dramatic, including possibly halting the delivery of mifepristone through the mail and at large pharmacy chains and ending increasingly popular telehealth visits at which the drug can be prescribed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Joe Biden’s administration and drug manufacturers warn that such an outcome could also undermine the FDA’s drug approval process more widely by inviting judges to second-guess the agency’s scientific judgments. The Democratic administration and New York-based Danco Laboratories, which makes mifepristone, say that the \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/mifepristone-abortion-pill-supreme-court-1d2221251197a391c9bca833918e4554\">drug is among the safest\u003c/a> the FDA has ever approved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a Biden appointee who joined the court just after the last abortion case, signaled her agreement with some of those arguments when she asked Jessica Ellsworth, Danco’s lawyer, whether she has concerns “about judges parsing medical and scientific studies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The abortion opponents argue that the FDA’s decisions in 2016 and 2021 to relax restrictions on getting the drug were unreasonable and, as Hawley wrote in her clients’ main legal brief, “jeopardize women’s health across the nation.” She argued Tuesday that she was asking the court to affirm a ruling that “merely restored long-standing and crucial protections under which millions of women used abortion drugs.” Her husband, Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Missouri, and one of their children were in the courtroom to watch her first arguments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mifepristone case began five months after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Abortion opponents initially won a sweeping ruling nearly a year ago from \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/texas-judge-matthew-kacsmaryk-abortion-pill-fda-75964b777ef09593a1ad948c6cfc0237\">U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk\u003c/a>, a Trump nominee in Texas, which would have revoked the drug’s approval entirely. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals left intact the FDA’s initial approval of mifepristone. However, it would reverse the changes that regulators made in 2016 and 2021, which eased some of the conditions for administering the drug.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Supreme Court put the appeals court’s modified ruling on hold, then agreed to hear the case, though Justices Samuel Alito, the author of the decision overturning Roe, and Clarence Thomas would have allowed some restrictions to take effect while the case proceeded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In arguments highly focused on technical legal issues, Alito and Thomas asked some of the few questions Tuesday on the substance of the case, including about sending mifepristone through the mail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They referred to the Comstock Act, a rarely used, 151-year-old criminal law that has been revived by anti-abortion advocates seeking to block the delivery of mifepristone through the U.S. mail. Addressing Ellsworth, Thomas said the law is “fairly broad, and it specifically covers drugs such as yours.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if the court doesn’t address the Comstock Act in its ruling, some abortion rights advocates fear that a future administration that favors abortion restrictions could invoke the law to roll back access to mifepristone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mifepristone is one of two drugs, along with misoprostol, used in medication abortions. Their numbers have been rising for years. More than 6 million people have used mifepristone since 2000. \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/mifepristone-supreme-court-abortion-d451e14148ffbe6ce4811b1a37651480\">Mifepristone\u003c/a> is taken first to dilate the cervix and block the hormone progesterone, which is needed to sustain a pregnancy. Misoprostol is taken 24 to 48 hours later, causing the uterus to contract and expel pregnancy tissue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Health care providers have said that if mifepristone is no longer available or is too hard to obtain, they would switch to using only misoprostol, which is somewhat less effective in ending pregnancies.\u003c/p>\n\n","stats":{"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"hasAudio":false,"hasPolis":false,"wordCount":1118,"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"paragraphCount":26},"modified":1711566453,"excerpt":"The Supreme Court seems likely to preserve access to a medication that was used in nearly two-thirds of all abortions in the U.S. last year, in the court’s first abortion case since conservative justices overturned Roe v.

The Democratic administration and New York-based Danco Laboratories, which makes mifepristone, say that the \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/mifepristone-abortion-pill-supreme-court-1d2221251197a391c9bca833918e4554\">drug is among the safest\u003c/a> the FDA has ever approved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a Biden appointee who joined the court just after the last abortion case, signaled her agreement with some of those arguments when she asked Jessica Ellsworth, Danco’s lawyer, whether she has concerns “about judges parsing medical and scientific studies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The abortion opponents argue that the FDA’s decisions in 2016 and 2021 to relax restrictions on getting the drug were unreasonable and, as Hawley wrote in her clients’ main legal brief, “jeopardize women’s health across the nation.” She argued Tuesday that she was asking the court to affirm a ruling that “merely restored long-standing and crucial protections under which millions of women used abortion drugs.” Her husband, Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Missouri, and one of their children were in the courtroom to watch her first arguments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mifepristone case began five months after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Abortion opponents initially won a sweeping ruling nearly a year ago from \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/texas-judge-matthew-kacsmaryk-abortion-pill-fda-75964b777ef09593a1ad948c6cfc0237\">U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk\u003c/a>, a Trump nominee in Texas, which would have revoked the drug’s approval entirely. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals left intact the FDA’s initial approval of mifepristone. However, it would reverse the changes that regulators made in 2016 and 2021, which eased some of the conditions for administering the drug.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Supreme Court put the appeals court’s modified ruling on hold, then agreed to hear the case, though Justices Samuel Alito, the author of the decision overturning Roe, and Clarence Thomas would have allowed some restrictions to take effect while the case proceeded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In arguments highly focused on technical legal issues, Alito and Thomas asked some of the few questions Tuesday on the substance of the case, including about sending mifepristone through the mail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They referred to the Comstock Act, a rarely used, 151-year-old criminal law that has been revived by anti-abortion advocates seeking to block the delivery of mifepristone through the U.S. mail. Addressing Ellsworth, Thomas said the law is “fairly broad, and it specifically covers drugs such as yours.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if the court doesn’t address the Comstock Act in its ruling, some abortion rights advocates fear that a future administration that favors abortion restrictions could invoke the law to roll back access to mifepristone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mifepristone is one of two drugs, along with misoprostol, used in medication abortions. Their numbers have been rising for years. More than 6 million people have used mifepristone since 2000. \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/mifepristone-supreme-court-abortion-d451e14148ffbe6ce4811b1a37651480\">Mifepristone\u003c/a> is taken first to dilate the cervix and block the hormone progesterone, which is needed to sustain a pregnancy.

It could make medication abortion much harder to get\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At least \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2024/03/19/1238293143/abortion-data-how-many-us-2023\">63% of all abortions\u003c/a> last year were medication abortions. They involve taking one dose of mifepristone, which blocks the pregnancy hormone progesterone, and one dose of misoprostol, which causes cramping and empties the uterus. Dozens of studies have found that the combination of these pills is \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK507232/#sec_000054\">safe and effective\u003c/a> for abortion, whether prescribed in a clinic or \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2024/02/15/1231652715/abortion-pill-telehealth-supreme-court-safe-study-mifepristone#:~:text=All%20Things%20Considered-,Abortion%20pills%20prescribed%20via%20telehealth%20are%20safe%20and%20effective%2C%20study,by%20any%20serious%20adverse%20events.\">through telemedicine\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11973441,news_11976304,news_11958412\" label=\"Related Stories\"]Last August, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/08/16/1194280392/ruling-deals-blow-to-access-to-abortion-pill-mifepristone-but-nothing-changes-ye\">ruled\u003c/a> that the FDA should roll back its prescribing rules to what they were in 2011. That would dramatically reduce the number of people able to access this medication for several reasons. It would shut down telemedicine access to the medication and could undo retail pharmacies’ \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2024/03/01/1235265078/abortion-pill-cvs-walgreens-mifepristone#:~:text=CVS%20and%20Walgreens%2C%20two%20of,companies%20separately%20confirmed%20to%20NPR.\">new ability to dispense it\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It would also make it only available until seven weeks of pregnancy, instead of 10 weeks under the current rules, along with other changes. (Globally, the medication can be used \u003ca href=\"https://www.guttmacher.org/2023/07/mifepristone-abortion-global-context-safe-effective-and-approved-nearly-100-countries#:~:text=The%20World%20Health%20Organization%20(WHO,methods%20of%20ending%20a%20pregnancy.\">as late as 12 weeks\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though the difference between seven and 10 weeks might not sound like much, nearly half of medication abortions happen after seven weeks, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/ss/ss7209a1.htm#T13_down\">according to the CDC\u003c/a>. Melissa Grant, COO of \u003ca href=\"https://carafem.org/\">carafem\u003c/a>, which runs abortion clinics and provides telemedicine abortions, explains that’s because the earliest someone might find out they’re pregnant is at four weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A seven-week limit gives people three weeks, at most, “to get a positive pregnancy test, determine what option is best for them, potentially involve people that they care about in their lives, find an appointment, look at potential assistance for the finances of it, and then actually go and get the medication and use it,” she says. “That’s a rapid turnaround.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many abortion providers are prepared to switch to another regimen, using \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/04/10/1168857095/misoprostol-only-medical-abortion\">only misoprostol\u003c/a>, but it requires more doses, which come with more side effects. And Grant says that regimen might be the next target if the challengers succeed in restricting mifepristone. “We wouldn’t be surprised if the next move on the political chessboard is to make both of these drugs unavailable,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. It would hamper miscarriage care\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>When someone has a miscarriage, doctors often prescribe the same mifepristone plus misoprostol regimen. The treatment can potentially ward off weeks of waiting, worrying and bleeding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, Michelle Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/05/17/1176514276/mifepristone-abortion-miscarriage-pill\">told NPR\u003c/a> that after she learned she was miscarrying, she was nervous she would start bleeding on her long commute to work in Louisiana, where there was no safe place to pull over. Taking mifepristone allowed her to plan ahead so she could be comfortable at home with her then-fiancé.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Larissa Adams explained to NPR that taking mifepristone allowed her to get through years of family planning challenges that involved miscarriage after miscarriage after miscarriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We use this medication in lots of different ways and for lots of different care,” including for miscarriage and pregnancy loss, says \u003ca href=\"https://prh.org/staff/dr-jamila-perritt-president-ceo/\">Dr. Jamila Perritt\u003c/a>, an OB-GYN in Washington D.C. who’s the President of Physicians for Reproductive Health. “If this medication is restricted or banned completely, no one will be able to get access to it with any ease,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. It could affect the whole country, including voters’ preferences in blue states\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the nearly two years since the Supreme Court overturned \u003cem>Roe\u003c/em>, states have moved in two opposing directions – about half of states ban or seriously restrict abortion, and the other half have passed measures to protect access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Supreme Court decision that restricts access to mifepristone would affect the whole country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think there’s been to some degree a false sense of security created by ballot initiatives [protecting abortion access] in some states,” says \u003ca href=\"https://law.ucdavis.edu/people/mary-ziegler\">Mary Ziegler,\u003c/a> a law professor at the University of California-Davis. “People are thinking, ‘What happens in the Supreme Court doesn’t really matter because I live in California or I live in Michigan or I live in Ohio’ – that, essentially, if you voted for a ballot initiative or you live in a blue state, you don’t have to worry about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a reminder that what happens in the federal courts can override what voters decide,” she adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. It could interfere with state sovereignty\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A ruling to limit access to mifepristone would extend into the states that have attempted to protect access. That’s why a group of 22 Democratic governors \u003ca href=\"https://governor.wa.gov/news/2024/reproductive-freedom-alliance-urges-supreme-court-respect-longstanding-fda-authority-access-safe\">filed an amicus brief\u003c/a> in this case. It argues that, if successful, the challengers’ strategy of using federal courts to override the FDA’s judgment, “would have an enormously disruptive impact on state governance and hamstring governors’ ability to fulfill their mandate of protecting public health and safety in the reproductive health care context and beyond.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ziegler observes there’s an irony here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the Supreme Court overruled \u003cem>Roe\u003c/em>, the takeaway, if you will, from Justice Alito, was, ‘It’s time for this question to be returned to the people and their elected representatives,'” she observes. “And yet, fast forward less than two years later and we have two major abortion cases at the Supreme Court, both of which could very much reconfigure what happens in states.” (The other \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2024/01/05/1216284896/supreme-court-allows-idaho-abortion-ban-to-be-enacted-first-such-ruling-since-do\">case, from Idaho\u003c/a>, challenges federal rules requiring abortion during a medical emergency, regardless of state restrictions.)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>6. The drug industry could face destabilizing uncertainty\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Drugmakers are quite concerned about the mifepristone case. Hundreds of drug company executives \u003ca href=\"https://docsend.com/view/2ahvmwy8djzxax3g\">signed a letter\u003c/a> last year in support of the FDA’s authority to regulate medications without judicial interference. Many also submitted \u003ca href=\"https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-235/299230/20240130145318224_23-235%20236%20tsac%20Pharma%20Merits%20Amicus%20FINAL.pdf\">an amicus brief\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This case is about mifepristone right now – it’s about one medicine, but it really could be any medicine, ” Dr. Amanda Banks, a consultant who signed the amicus brief, says in a press conference this month organized by the ACLU.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The [FDA] regulatory process that we rely upon as an industry is rigorous and long and it’s expensive,” she explained, adding that it’s not a perfect process, but it’s predictable. If it can be undone by plaintiffs who morally object to a medicine and friendly federal courts, that predictability goes out the window, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The uncertainty could affect investors and drug companies and “could put innovation for new drugs and much, much-needed therapies for patients, not just in the United States, but globally, at fundamental risk,” Banks says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It could also set a new precedent, Ziegler adds. “Any drug could get a second look from federal judges who are not reviewing as much evidence [as FDA scientists], or are not competent to review as much evidence, because they don’t like the way the FDA handled it,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-235/299512/20240201143618529_23-235%20and%2023-236%20tsac%20Motion%20For%20Leave%20To%20File%20Brief%20And%20Ac%20Former%20Commissioners%20Of%20The%20U.S.%20Food%20And%20Drug%20Administration.pdf\">another amicus brief\u003c/a>, former FDA commissioners argued that drug companies could make use of a precedent set by this case to challenge a competitor’s FDA approval. Or, they write, “Organizations representing patients who experience rare adverse events could challenge FDA’s risk-benefit analyses and attempt to bar access to safe and effective remedies for others who need them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that’s why the pharmaceutical industry is nervous,” Ziegler says. “They’re saying, if this could happen with mifepristone, which has a very, very low complication rate and which is very, very well studied because it’s been controversial, then what would stop anyone from doing it with every other drug?”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>7. A path toward a national abortion ban is embedded in the cas\u003cstrong>e\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Legal scholars like Ziegler also note that there’s an even bigger way that this case could affect everyone in the country. “You have, lurking in the background, the possibility that the Comstock Act is going to be reinvented as an abortion ban,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2023/04/18/1170371877/abortion-pill-mifepristone-judge-comstock\">The Comstock Act\u003c/a> is a 19th-century law prohibiting the mailing of things for “indecent” or “immoral” use. The plaintiffs in this case use Comstock in one of their arguments, treating it as a straightforward statute and not a defunct law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rules included in the Comstock Act could encompass not just abortion pills but birth control and any equipment used for any type of abortion, and Ziegler says this could effectively inhibit all abortion care in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of what the ultimate decision on mifepristone is, “if the court says, ‘your reading of the Comstock Act is right,’ there are any number of anti-abortion groups that will try to find a way to get back to the Supreme Court to explore all those implications,” Ziegler says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2024 NPR.

Melissa Grant, COO of \u003ca href=\"https://carafem.org/\">carafem\u003c/a>, which runs abortion clinics and provides telemedicine abortions, explains that’s because the earliest someone might find out they’re pregnant is at four weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A seven-week limit gives people three weeks, at most, “to get a positive pregnancy test, determine what option is best for them, potentially involve people that they care about in their lives, find an appointment, look at potential assistance for the finances of it, and then actually go and get the medication and use it,” she says. “That’s a rapid turnaround.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many abortion providers are prepared to switch to another regimen, using \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/04/10/1168857095/misoprostol-only-medical-abortion\">only misoprostol\u003c/a>, but it requires more doses, which come with more side effects. And Grant says that regimen might be the next target if the challengers succeed in restricting mifepristone. “We wouldn’t be surprised if the next move on the political chessboard is to make both of these drugs unavailable,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>2. It would hamper miscarriage care\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>When someone has a miscarriage, doctors often prescribe the same mifepristone plus misoprostol regimen. The treatment can potentially ward off weeks of waiting, worrying and bleeding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, Michelle Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/05/17/1176514276/mifepristone-abortion-miscarriage-pill\">told NPR\u003c/a> that after she learned she was miscarrying, she was nervous she would start bleeding on her long commute to work in Louisiana, where there was no safe place to pull over. Taking mifepristone allowed her to plan ahead so she could be comfortable at home with her then-fiancé.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Larissa Adams explained to NPR that taking mifepristone allowed her to get through years of family planning challenges that involved miscarriage after miscarriage after miscarriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We use this medication in lots of different ways and for lots of different care,” including for miscarriage and pregnancy loss, says \u003ca href=\"https://prh.org/staff/dr-jamila-perritt-president-ceo/\">Dr. Jamila Perritt\u003c/a>, an OB-GYN in Washington D.C. who’s the President of Physicians for Reproductive Health. “If this medication is restricted or banned completely, no one will be able to get access to it with any ease,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>3. It could affect the whole country, including voters’ preferences in blue states\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the nearly two years since the Supreme Court overturned \u003cem>Roe\u003c/em>, states have moved in two opposing directions – about half of states ban or seriously restrict abortion, and the other half have passed measures to protect access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Supreme Court decision that restricts access to mifepristone would affect the whole country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think there’s been to some degree a false sense of security created by ballot initiatives [protecting abortion access] in some states,” says \u003ca href=\"https://law.ucdavis.edu/people/mary-ziegler\">Mary Ziegler,\u003c/a> a law professor at the University of California-Davis. “People are thinking, ‘What happens in the Supreme Court doesn’t really matter because I live in California or I live in Michigan or I live in Ohio’ – that, essentially, if you voted for a ballot initiative or you live in a blue state, you don’t have to worry about it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a reminder that what happens in the federal courts can override what voters decide,” she adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>4. It could interfere with state sovereignty\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A ruling to limit access to mifepristone would extend into the states that have attempted to protect access. That’s why a group of 22 Democratic governors \u003ca href=\"https://governor.wa.gov/news/2024/reproductive-freedom-alliance-urges-supreme-court-respect-longstanding-fda-authority-access-safe\">filed an amicus brief\u003c/a> in this case. It argues that, if successful, the challengers’ strategy of using federal courts to override the FDA’s judgment, “would have an enormously disruptive impact on state governance and hamstring governors’ ability to fulfill their mandate of protecting public health and safety in the reproductive health care context and beyond.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ziegler observes there’s an irony here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the Supreme Court overruled \u003cem>Roe\u003c/em>, the takeaway, if you will, from Justice Alito, was, ‘It’s time for this question to be returned to the people and their elected representatives,'” she observes. “And yet, fast forward less than two years later and we have two major abortion cases at the Supreme Court, both of which could very much reconfigure what happens in states.” (The other \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2024/01/05/1216284896/supreme-court-allows-idaho-abortion-ban-to-be-enacted-first-such-ruling-since-do\">case, from Idaho\u003c/a>, challenges federal rules requiring abortion during a medical emergency, regardless of state restrictions.)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>6. The drug industry could face destabilizing uncertainty\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Drugmakers are quite concerned about the mifepristone case. Hundreds of drug company executives \u003ca href=\"https://docsend.com/view/2ahvmwy8djzxax3g\">signed a letter\u003c/a> last year in support of the FDA’s authority to regulate medications without judicial interference.

If it can be undone by plaintiffs who morally object to a medicine and friendly federal courts, that predictability goes out the window, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The uncertainty could affect investors and drug companies and “could put innovation for new drugs and much, much-needed therapies for patients, not just in the United States, but globally, at fundamental risk,” Banks says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It could also set a new precedent, Ziegler adds. “Any drug could get a second look from federal judges who are not reviewing as much evidence [as FDA scientists], or are not competent to review as much evidence, because they don’t like the way the FDA handled it,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-235/299512/20240201143618529_23-235%20and%2023-236%20tsac%20Motion%20For%20Leave%20To%20File%20Brief%20And%20Ac%20Former%20Commissioners%20Of%20The%20U.S.%20Food%20And%20Drug%20Administration.pdf\">another amicus brief\u003c/a>, former FDA commissioners argued that drug companies could make use of a precedent set by this case to challenge a competitor’s FDA approval. Or, they write, “Organizations representing patients who experience rare adverse events could challenge FDA’s risk-benefit analyses and attempt to bar access to safe and effective remedies for others who need them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that’s why the pharmaceutical industry is nervous,” Ziegler says. “They’re saying, if this could happen with mifepristone, which has a very, very low complication rate and which is very, very well studied because it’s been controversial, then what would stop anyone from doing it with every other drug?”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>7.

We’ll edit it for you, make sure it’s accurate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Free speech advocates said the court should use the case to draw an appropriate line between the government’s acceptable use of the bully pulpit and coercive threats to free speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re encouraged that the Court was sensitive both to the First Amendment rights of platforms and their users and to the public interest in having a government empowered to participate in public discourse.

Last week, the court laid out \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-social-media-public-officials-973f1d18e74faccaa4bfce3bd65cc1af\">standards for when public officials can block their social media followers\u003c/a>. Less than a month ago, the court heard arguments over \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-social-media-florida-texas-820e90e58e49c1146b69101ece4dd9d5\">Republican-passed laws in Florida and Texas\u003c/a> that prohibit large social media companies from taking down posts because of the views they express.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cases over state laws and the one that was argued Monday are variations on the same theme, complaints that the platforms are censoring conservative viewpoints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The states argue that White House communications staffers, the surgeon general, the FBI and the U.S. cybersecurity agency are among those who coerced changes in online content on social media platforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aguiñaga put the situation in stark terms, telling the justices that “the record reveals unrelenting pressure by the government to coerce social media platforms to suppress the speech of millions of Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said that calls merely encouraging the platforms to act could also violate speech rights, responding to a hypothetical situation conjured by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson about an online challenge that “involved teens jumping out of windows at increasing elevations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jackson, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, pressed the Louisiana lawyer about whether platforms could be encouraged to remove such posts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was with you right until that last comment, Your Honor,” Aguiñaga said. “I think they absolutely can call and say this is a problem, it’s going rampant on your platforms, but the moment that the government tries to use its ability as the government and its stature as the government to pressure them to take it down, that is when you’re interfering with the third party’s speech rights.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Samuel Alito appeared most open to the states’ arguments, at one point referring to the government’s “constant pestering of Facebook and some of the other platforms.” Alito, along with Justices Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas, would have allowed the restrictions on government contacts with the platforms to go into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Department lawyer Brian Fletcher argued that none of the actions the states complain about come close to problematic coercion and that the federal government would lose its ability to communicate with the social media companies about antisemitic and anti-Muslim posts, as well as on issues of national security, public health and election integrity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The platforms are large sophisticated actors with no reluctance to stand up to the government, “saying no repeatedly when they disagree with what the government is asking them to do,” Fletcher said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Elena Kagan and Kavanaugh, two justices who served in the White House earlier in their careers, seemed to agree, likening the exchanges between officials and the platforms to relationships between the government and more traditional media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kavanaugh described “experienced government press people throughout the federal government who regularly call up the media and — and berate them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, Kagan said, “I mean, this happens literally thousands of times a day in the federal government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alito, gesturing at the courtroom’s press section, mused that whenever reporters “write something we don’t like,” the court’s chief spokeswoman “can call them up and curse them out and say…why don’t we be partners? We’re on the same team. Why don’t you show us what you’re going to write beforehand? We’ll edit it for you, make sure it’s accurate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Free speech advocates said the court should use the case to draw an appropriate line between the government’s acceptable use of the bully pulpit and coercive threats to free speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re encouraged that the Court was sensitive both to the First Amendment rights of platforms and their users and to the public interest in having a government empowered to participate in public discourse. To that end, we hope that the Court resolves these cases by making clear that the First Amendment prohibits coercion but permits the government to attempt to shape public opinion through the use of persuasion,” Alex Abdo, litigation director of the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A panel of three judges on the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals had ruled earlier that the Biden administration had probably brought unconstitutional pressure on the media platforms. The appellate panel said officials cannot attempt to “coerce or significantly encourage” changes in online content. The panel had previously narrowed a more sweeping order from a federal judge, who wanted to include even more government officials and prohibit mere encouragement of content changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A divided Supreme Court put the 5th Circuit ruling on hold in October when it agreed to take up the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A decision in Murthy v.
