Ten days ago, a judge in Texas blocked FDA approval for mifepristone. Then, last Wednesday, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals changed his ruling, but still decimated access. Friday, the Supreme Court stepped in with a brief stay. This means that access to mifepristone will continue until at least Wednesday.

Here's what you need to know:

Mifepristone is widely used, effective, and safe
- Mifepristone has a safety record of more than 99% -- making it safer than commonplace procedures like tonsils or wisdom teeth removal.

The Texas lawsuit is baseless
- We know mifepristone is safe -- decades of data prove it. This lawsuit isn't about safety, it's about denying pregnant people access to abortion.

The stakes are high
- A ban on mifepristone would do the most harm to patients with low incomes, people of color, and anyone who faces obstacles to accessing medical care.

The fight isn't over
- The future of medication abortion is still under threat, which means access to abortion is still under threat.
