The AG's office made the announcement Friday, joining a suit being led by Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson and Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum.
“Mifepristone is safe and effective and has been used for over two decades by millions of people," Mayes said."Access to this drug allows patients to make their own private medical decisions without interference by the government or anti-abortion politicians. The bottom line is that individuals should be able to make decisions about their reproductive lives without unnecessary restrictions like these.
The attorneys general also filed a preliminary injunction asking the court to pause the enforcement of the FDA's restrictions on the drug while the case plays out in court.
