Court Rules Abortion Pill Restrictions Unlawful

Court Rules Abortion Pill Restrictions Unlawful

A court in Virginia said that some rules about an abortion pill called mifepristone are not fair.

These rules make it hard for doctors and patients.

The court said the rules are not based on good science.

The pill has been used safely for a long time.

Some people who are against abortion say the pill is not safe, but the court did not agree.

The court did not change the rules but said the government should look at them again.

This is different from another case where a state wants to stop people from getting the pill in the mail.
