A coalition of media outlets, including the Amarillo Globe-News, part of the USA TODAY Network, filed a motion protesting the delay in public notice.the lawsuit lacks legal and scientific standing but have raised concerns that Judge Kacsmaryk may still rule on the side of the plaintiffs, striking down FDA approval of mifepristone.
"Clearly, overturning Roe v. Wade was not the end game for the anti-abortion movement," Lorie Chaiten, senior staff attorney at the ACLU's Reproductive Freedom Project, told USA Today in February.While the FDA may choose to restart the approval process, this could take years.

Health experts say a misoprostol-only protocol for medication abortions is a safe and effective alternative to the two-step process using both mifepristone and misoprostol that is used in the U.S. While misoprostol has been used on its own for years for abortions around the world, studies show it is less effective than the two-step regimen.

You mean … in an unprecedented hearing in which the plaintiffs have zero standing, a handpicked right wing Trump appointed religious zealot judge in Texas is poised to overturn 20+ years of use of an FDA Approved drug because … the GOP hates women. Fixed it for you!!!
