Wireless. It's Friday, June
0:32
14th, and the justices that overturned
0:34
Roe just protected the abortion pill.
0:36
We start here. In
0:41
a unanimous verdict, the Supreme Court says
0:43
this isn't the way to ban Mifepristone.
0:45
The court decided that the individuals who
0:47
brought this lawsuit didn't have the legal
0:49
right to do that. But did they
0:51
also just lay out a roadmap to
0:54
ban it successfully? Meanwhile, the Justice Department
0:56
takes on the Phoenix PD. This
0:58
is one instance where we can't count
1:00
on the police to police themselves. The
1:02
disturbing allegations in a city with one of
1:05
the highest police shooting rates in the nation.
1:07
And there's a difference between protesting

1:24
I'm Brad Milkey. It's
1:30
June, which means the Supreme Court is finally releasing its opinions
1:32
on all these cases they've been hearing for the last
1:34
several months. And often as the days go on
1:36
in this period, the cases get bigger,
1:39
often more divisive. After
1:41
all, it was a late June day a couple years ago when
1:43
Roe v. Wade was overturned. So
1:46
it might've been surprising yesterday morning when we
1:48
learned a different ruling about abortion, this
1:50
time specifically about the abortion pill was
1:53
about to be made public. President Trump
1:55
says in an interview this morning and
1:58
in prior reports, unanimously
2:00
to maintain availability. But as contentious as
2:03
this issue is, this decision was not
2:05
close. It was a unanimous ruling, and
2:07
it protects the pill from being banned
2:09
in states where abortion is still legal.
2:11
Let's go straight to ABC Supreme Court
2:14
contributor Kate Shaw, who is watching all
2:16
this. Kate, first off, can you just
2:18
remind us what this case was about?
2:20
Sure thing, Brad. So the case is about
2:23
the future of medication abortion, specifically one of
2:25
the drugs that is used
2:27
in ending early pregnancies. It's called
2:29
mifepristone, and a group of anti-abortion
2:31
doctors sued the FDA, initially
2:34
trying to get mifepristone totally yanked
2:36
off the shelves, but also arguing
2:38
that several recent regulatory changes by
2:40
the FDA to make mifepristone more
2:42
readily available were unlawful and should
2:44
be undone, making mifepristone at the
2:47
very least more difficult to access.
2:50
And so then yesterday, what is the ruling? Because the idea of
2:52
who brought this case ended up being important
2:54
to it. Oh, that was critical,
2:56
Brad. And that's really all the court decided,
2:59
was that the individuals who brought this lawsuit
3:01
didn't have the legal right to do that.
3:03
I mean, can you point me to any
3:06
place in the declarations where a declarant states
3:08
that they attempted to object but were unable
3:10
to? No, Your Honor, for two reasons. One,
3:12
these are emergency situations. So this was a
3:15
group of anti-abortion doctors that were never able
3:17
to make a convincing case for why they
3:19
should be in court in the first place.
3:21
They had some theories that they offered that
3:24
basically said, well, maybe some woman somewhere
3:26
will take mifepristone and have complications
3:28
as a result of taking mifepristone.
3:30
And one of the doctors in
3:32
the lawsuit might encounter such
3:34
a woman in an emergency room and be
3:36
forced to participate in her care. And
3:39
that gave them what's known as standing,
3:41
like a legal stake in the matter
3:44
that gave them the right to go
3:46
to court and ask the courts essentially
3:48
to examine the FDA's approval protocols with
3:50
respect to mifepristone. Did she have an
3:53
opportunity to object? Did she object?
3:55
No, Your Honor. Again, these are
3:57
life-threatening situations in which the choice
