Justice Department asks appeals court to keep abortion pill mifepristone on the market after a Texas judge blocked the FDA's approval of the drug

The Biden administration asked the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals to keep abortion pill mifepristone on the U.S. market as litigation plays out.

Abortion pill distributor Danco Laboratories will likely ask the Supreme Court to intervene if the 5th Circuit does not at least temporarily block Kacsmaryk's decision, the company's attorney said. The Biden administration's lawyers said in a filing to the 5th Circuit that"there is no basis for extraordinary nationwide relief that would upend a decades-long status quo."
