The Biden administration is said to be very pleased with the decision by the Supreme Court. Essentially, what it does is defend access to the drug in the latest legal battle over abortion in America. President Biden praised the ruling and said he continues to stand by the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of the pill manufactured by Danco. Biden said in a statement: “As a result of the supreme court’s stay, mifepristone remains available and approved for safe and effective use while we continue this fight in the courts. The stakes could not be higher for women across America. I will continue to fight politically driven attacks on women’s health.”

This is Civics 101. It’s all about laws, how they get made, and how they get changed.

This column is about inspiring everyday citizens to be engaged in their community, city, and state and pay attention to local, state, and federal government. It’s about trying to help make America a beautiful place again, where litter isn’t commonplace, and graffiti isn’t splattered across walls of small business owners or on corporate buildings--I could go on.
