The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to preserve access to the abortion pill mifepristone, reversing a lower court's decision. Hostin expressed restored faith in the court, emphasizing the significance of the legal standard for bringing a case.
Hostin predicted states would attempt to restrict reproductive rights despite the ruling. She highlighted that some states still prohibit the use of the abortion pill for abortion purposes, emphasizing ongoing challenges to women's reproductive health rights.
The court's decision on the abortion pill did not dismiss the merits of a potential ban but focused on the standing of the case. Hostin noted a subtle hint in the 25-page decision for Congress and governors to consider legislating any such constraints.
