Good morning, I'm Taylor Wilson and today is Friday June 14th, 2024. This is the

excerpt. Today a look at several Supreme Court decisions including one over a widely used

abortion drug. Plus Biden signs a security agreement with Ukraine what's's it actually mean? And why Trump returned

to Capitol Hill this week. The Supreme Court yesterday preserved access to

the abortion medication Miffy Prististon. I caught up with USA Today Supreme

Court correspondent Maureen Gropi to look into the decision as well as a pair of

other cases the High Court ruled on dealing with a dispute, and an insult about Donald Trump.

Maureen, thanks for making the time.

Happy to be here. So Maureen, what did the court decide here over the abortion

pill, Miffey Pristo? The court found that the anti-abortion doctors who were challenging the

FDA's loosened restrictions to Miffa Pristone did not have a legal basis to do

so. They hadn't shown that they'd been harmed by the FDA's decisions and those decisions included that the drug can safely be prescribed through a telehealth consultation and sent through the mail and it can also be prescribed by pharmacists.

How are critics and supporters of this decision responding?

Well, both sides say the fight isn't over.

This case was decided not

on the merits, but on what the anti-abortion groups are calling a technicality,

though it's not clear exactly how a case, a similar case,

could get back to the court that would survive the same technicality,

but anti-abortion groups say they're going to keep looking for ways to restrict

Miffopris-Done and abortion rights advocates say they're going to keep trying to block those efforts.
