Hey OnPolitics readers! The Supreme Court is preparing to take up its first big case on abortion rights since overturning Roe v. Wade, the landmark decision that first cleared the way for a constitutional right to an abortion. |
On Tuesday, the justices will consider if the Food and Drug Administration correctly allowed mifepristone to be dispensed through the mail, let nurse practitioners and physician assistants prescribe the drug in addition to doctors and let pregnant patients take the drug up to ten weeks instead of seven, USA TODAY's Maureen Groppe reported. |
The court's decision could have an impact on the 2024 race for the White House between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden − but how much is unclear. |
What decision would help Trump? The best outcome for Trump's campaign, experts told USA TODAY, is if the Biden administration wins the case or if the decision is hard for the public to understand. That would help Trump argue that abortion rights aren't going to be a big issue for the next president. |
Is abortion a top issue for voters? Nearly two-thirds of adults hadn't heard anything about the abortion pill case in a February poll from KFF . Abortion has also fallen in importance to voters. The 12% who said it's the most important issue in their 2024 vote is down from 24% in 2022, according to the organization. |
Reproductive rights top issue for Biden: The Biden camp is arguing the reversal of Roe v. Wade, and the resulting abortion restrictions around the country, are a direct result of the judicial appointments Trump often brags about. | | | | Former President Donald Trump got a new trial date in his criminal hush money case despite arguing the whole case should be tossed out. | | | | Inflammatory rhetoric and the use of expletives in politics has become the norm among lawmakers and political candidates. | | | | Influencers are speaking out over a proposed TikTok ban that could maim creators' livelihoods and their ability to get out the vote come November. | | | | Joe Biden, joined by Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi, warned against Donald Trump's push to repeal the Affordable Care Act. | | | | The Biden administration is trying to convince voters the economy is on the upswing. Growing pawnshop inventory suggests times are still tough. | | | | | This 7-day newsletter course will help you be an informed voter before Nov. 5. | | | | | | | |
