A federal judge heard oral arguments in a lawsuit that could end the availability of the
abortion-inducing drug mifepristone throughout the nation. The case was brought against the Food and Drug Administration in November by the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, a coalition of pro-life OB/GYNS, pediatricians, and other Christian healthcare providers, who is seeking a preliminary injunction to require the FDA to withdraw or suspend its approval of the drug while the lawsuit continues.
