Abortion pills are safe from the Supreme Court—for now

The Supreme Court’s unanimous decision to preserve access to abortion pills shows just how flimsy this case was. It never should have survived in the lower courts to reach the Supreme Court, and even the most extreme justices—including Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas—would have been embarrassed upholding the lower courts’ decision. 

But make no mistake, this is a temporary reprieve. Anti-abortion forces are gearing up for more attacks.
