US approval of the abortion medication mifepristone has been revoked, in a decision that could further disrupt reproductive healthcare for millions of people.
District Judge Matthew J Kacsmaryk, a Trump administration appointee in Amarillo, Texas, signed an injunction directing the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to halt its approval while a lawsuit challenging its safety continues.
He sided, in part, with a conservative Christian group, Alliance Defending Freedom, which brought a lawsuit alleging the drug was not being regulated properly.

He did not go as far as the complainants wanted, but he put a “stay” or hold on approval of the drug.
The judge’s decision does not come into effect for seven days. Meanwhile, the Department of Justice has announced it will appeal the ruling.
In a statement, President Joe Biden said: “My administration will fight this ruling…
“Let’s be clear – the only way to stop those who are committed to taking away women’s rights and freedoms in every state is to elect a Congress who will pass a law restoring Roe versus Wade.
“Vice President [Kamala] Harris and I will continue to lead the fight to protect a woman’s right to an abortion, and to make her own decisions about her own health.”
