"deja vu" because anti-abortion doctors and dentists (lol yes) tried this in 2022, but the Supreme Court said in 2024 they didn't have standing to sue—never got into the legality of FDA actions. States are now arguing abortion pills and telehealth Rx undermine enforcement of their abortion bans

NEW (but deja vu): Texas and Florida are suing the FDA over its approval and regulation of the abortion drug mifepristone. The states are asking Judge Reed O'Connor to declare the 25yo approval unlawful and yank mife from the market—but judges can't do that storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
