The clock is ticking. A federal appeals court just ruled that mifepristone — the most common abortion pill in the United States — can no longer be prescribed online or sent through the mail. If this ruling stands, millions of people will lose access to a safe, FDA-approved medication that has been used by more than 7 million patients in this country since 2000.

For many people, telehealth isn't a convenience — it's the only option. If you live hours from the nearest clinic, if you can't take time off work, if you don't have reliable transportation, or if you live in a state where abortion providers have closed their doors, telemedicine may be the only way you can get the care you need. Taking that away doesn't make abortion less common. It just makes it harder, more dangerous, and more out of reach for the people who already have the least.

By 2022, medication abortion accounted for nearly two-thirds of all abortions in the U.S., according to the Guttmacher Institute. Roughly 1 in 4 abortions were provided via telehealth by the end of 2024, according to KFF. This is how people access care now — and a single court ruling shouldn't be allowed to erase that overnight.

The Supreme Court has temporarily paused this ruling until May 11, 2026. That window is closing fast. We are calling on the Supreme Court to permanently block this appeals court decision and protect nationwide telehealth access to mifepristone — a drug the FDA has repeatedly confirmed is safe and effective.
