Lower courts in the case relied on anonymous internet blog posts and questionable witnesses to formulate their opinions.
The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments on Tuesday regarding the legality of the approval process for the abortion medication mifepristone, in a case that could result in further abortion regulations just two years after the Court upended federal protections for the procedure.
The civil rights organization pointed out that Kacsmaryk cited a study in his ruling that purported that the drug resulted in negative mental health impacts for those who used it. That “study,” however, was based on 98 anonymous blog posts to an anti-abortion website — hardly a critically sound or scientific examination.
Despite the hold placed on the lower court rulings, there is worry that the Supreme Court, which has undergone a hard right shift in the past decade, could implement restrictions in this case that wouldn’t just affect abortion medication but also the approval process of other drugs the FDA has greenlit in the past.in January that the case was never about ensuring safety, but about denying people health care.
