Mifepristone
Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, mifepristone is a safe and reliable drug
that has been widely available for decades. Though I am relieved by
today's decision made by the Court, no one should be celebrating this
decision. This decision should have been an obvious one. And let us not
forget: This decision was based not on the merits but on a lack of
standing. We are not yet out of the woods.
This shouldn't be a decision women are forced to fear year after
year, case after case. These healthcare decisions must be between
women, families, and their doctors, not judges nor lawmakers.
