OBGYN Explains What Happens If The Supreme Court Upholds Abortion pill ban

The Supreme Court recently put a hold on the the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit in a lawsuit by Louisiana banning access to mifepristone by mail. The ruling came from (check notes) Justice Sam Alito upon request from the FDA and the drug companies that manufacture Mifepristone. Mifepristone is considered an abortion pill and is made available to everyone in the mail courtesy of blue states like California and New York's shield laws. While this is a surprising move by a very conservative Supreme Court, it's also a temporary stay. So what happens if the Supreme Court decides to lift the ban? According to our guest, OBGYN, PA Nikki Sapiro Vinckier, author of the book, We Deserve More, this could lead to gutting abortion rights even more than when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022.On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, Vinckier explains how these "pro-life" Republican red states aren't just about punishing women for having abortions. The repercussions of these laws have led to a rise in the infant mortality rate in states like Texas and an increase in the number of miscarriages. For a pregnant woman right now, there's no place more dangerous than living in one of these Red States with strict laws.In other news, Trump still hasn't solved the war in Iran and he loves bragging about passing dementia tests.
