Supreme Court Preserves Mail-Order Abortion Access Amid Ongoing Litigation
The US Supreme Court has granted a stay on a federal appeals court decision that sought to restrict mail-order distribution of mifepristone, allowing the abortion pill to remain available by mail while litigation continues. This decision maintains access to the drug, which is used in over 60 percent of abortions, despite strong dissents from Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, who argued the move undermines the Dobbs decision. In other news, recent diplomatic meetings between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping resulted in few concrete outcomes, with vague statements on bilateral relations and no progress on key issues like Taiwan or export restrictions. Domestically, New York lawmakers are considering a one percent tax on cash purchases of homes valued at over one million dollars. Additionally, the Justice Department reported findings of racial discrimination against white and Asian applicants at Yale University's medical school, part of broader probes into alleged bias in higher education institutions.
