Dear John,

In the Spring issue of Ms., our cover story by contributing editor Carrie Baker raises the alarm about future decisions from the Supreme Court. Her analysis could not be more timely.

Right now, the Supreme Court is considering whether to allow mifepristone, one of two medications used in over 50 percent of all abortions in the U.S., to remain available under current FDA regulations that allow the drug to be prescribed by telemedicine and delivered through the mail and whether the generic version of the pill can remain on the market. A decision could come as early as this week.

Also in the Spring issue, we break down the faulty logic of Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s “adoption option.” During oral arguments in Dobbs last year, Justice Barrett contended that abortion is no longer needed because “safe-haven laws take care of that problem.” And Justice Samuel Alito wrote in a footnote that “a woman who puts her newborn up for adoption today has little reason to fear that the baby will not find a suitable home.” Ms.’s reporter fact-checked Coney Barrett’s and Alito’s suggestions, which one interviewee called “horrific,” brutal” and “cruel.”
