☆ North Carolina Passes 12-Week Abortion Ban

From a high-stakes legal battle over the abortion pill mifepristone, to states debating their own legislation, WSJ’s Laura Kusisto highlights where abortion access stands now and what could come next. Photo Illustration: Preston JesseeNorth Carolina’s Republican-led legislature passed a ban on most abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy, setting the state on a path to restricting access that could ultimately reverberate across the region. North Carolina has become a crucial access point for patients in the Southeast seeking abortions after the Supreme Court last year overturned Roe v. Wade and many states in the region enacted near-total bans on the procedure.
☆ Liberal Prosecutors Tussle With State Officials Over Abortion, Drug Crimes

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended state attorney Andrew Warren over his pledge to not prosecute cases related to abortion. Photo Composite: Emily SiuA federal appeals court on Tuesday will hear arguments over whether a Tampa-area prosecutor who was suspended by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis should get his job back, the most high-profile example of the growing confrontations between state officials and local prosecutors who decline to enforce certain laws. In recent years, dozens of liberal local prosecutors have made promises not to enforce bans on abortion or certain low-level drug offenses, which they say are harmful to their communities and a poor use of limited resources.

Photo: Sean Rayford/Getty ImagesThe North Carolina Supreme Court, with a new Republican majority elected last year, on Friday threw out some of its own recent decisions that endorsed a broad view of voting rights, reinstating a voter-identification law and rejecting a challenge to electoral maps drawn by the state’s Republican-controlled legislature. The court, in a third decision, also rolled back voting rights for some people with felony convictions.

The high court on Wednesday extended by two days a temporary stay allowing sales of the pill mifepristone to continue while it weighs whether to block lower-court orders that would impose significant new limits on the drug. Those restrictions are set to go into effect at the end of the day on Friday absent Supreme Court intervention.

Photo Illustration: Preston JesseeWASHINGTON—The Supreme Court on Friday allowed the widely used abortion pill mifepristone to remain on the market indefinitely, granting emergency requests from the Biden administration and the brand-name manufacturer of the drug. The high court blocked the effect of lower-court orders that would have limited access to the pill, which is used in more than half of U.S. abortions. The Supreme Court’s action wasn’t a decision on the merits of the case; instead, the justices were deciding whether the pill could remain available during a continuing legal challenge brought by antiabortion groups.

Photo illustration: Ryan TrefesWASHINGTON—The Supreme Court is expected to issue an order as soon as Wednesday that could determine the availability of the widely used abortion pill mifepristone for at least the next several months. The justices are considering emergency appeals from the Biden administration and Danco Laboratories LLC, the brand-name manufacturer of the pill, to keep the drug on the market during ongoing litigation over its approval more than 20 years ago by the Food and Drug Administration. Antiabortion groups filed a lawsuit in November challenging the original approval and more recent regulations that made the pill, which is used in more than half of abortions, easier to obtain.

☆ Gov. Ron DeSantis Signs Florida Six-Week Abortion Ban

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis late Thursday signed into law a bill banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy, a strict measure that could earn him support from Republican primary voters if he runs for president but that also carries political risks among the broader electorate. The legislation was a priority this session for the state’s Republican-led legislature, and political observers think it could boost Mr. DeSantis’s prospects in a presidential primary. Antiabortion leaders said it would also help assuage concerns that Mr. DeSantis has lagged behind some other Republicans nationally in fighting for restrictions on abortion.

WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court temporarily blocked lower court orders that would limit access to the abortion drug mifepristone beginning Saturday, preserving current availability while it weighs the Biden administration’s emergency request to leave current Food and Drug Administration approvals in place during an ongoing legal battle with antiabortion groups. In a pair of orders, Justice Samuel Alito , who oversees emergency matters for the lower courts that limited or suspended approval of the widely used abortion pill, gave the antiabortion groups until noon Tuesday to file briefs in response to appeals filed on Friday by the FDA and Danco Laboratories LLC, which makes the branded version Mifeprex.

A fast-moving legal battle over the abortion pill is heading to the Supreme Court after a federal appeals court allowed the drug to remain on the market but imposed significant restrictions on its use. The order issued by the New Orleans-based Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals late Wednesday in effect returns restrictions on the drug, known as mifepristone, to what they were before 2016, when the pill could only be used through about seven weeks of pregnancy, required three in-person doctor’s visits and couldn’t be sent to patients through the mail.

A ruling by a Texas judge suspending approval of the abortion pill sets off a new national fight over women’s access to abortion less than a year after the Supreme Court withdrew constitutional protections for the procedure. In a 67-page ruling on Friday, U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a Trump appointee who sits in Amarillo, said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration made a series of legal errors in approving the pill, known as mifepristone, for sale. He delayed the impact of his decision for a week while the Biden administration appeals and seeks an emergency stay.

U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk of Amarillo, Texas, said in a 67-page ruling that the FDA made a series of legal errors in approving the pill for sale in the U.S. The judge suspended approval of the pill but delayed the impact of his decision for a week to give the Biden administration a chance to appeal.
☆ Wisconsin Supreme Court Election Shows Abortion Continues to Sway Voters
  + stars: | 2023-04-06 | by ( Laura Kusisto | Shannon Najmabadi | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Judge Janet Protasiewicz touted her support for reproductive rights during the campaign. For the first time in recent memory, liberals have gained a majority of seats on Wisconsin’s highest court, the latest in a string of electoral victories for Democrats in politically mixed states in which abortion rights have played a central role. Judge Janet Protasiewicz, a candidate with strong backing from the Democratic Party who openly touted her support for reproductive rights, won the seat in a swing state by 11 percentage points in Tuesday’s vote. It was the most expensive state supreme court race in U.S. history, in which money poured in from wealthy donors and national groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union and Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America.
☆ Wisconsin Voters to Decide on State Supreme Court Swing Seat Tuesday
  + stars: | 2023-04-04 | by ( Ben Kesling | Laura Kusisto | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
Elections for the seven-member Wisconsin Supreme Court, located in the State Capitol in Madison, have attracted an unusual amount of attention from national groups. Wisconsin voters head to the polls Tuesday in a high-stakes election for a swing seat on the state’s supreme court that has become the most expensive such judicial contest in U.S. history, demonstrating how state courts have become the focus of increasingly partisan politics. The candidates in the technically-nonpartisan race, which will affect control of the legislature and abortion law in Wisconsin, are Judge Janet Protasiewicz and Daniel Kelly . Judge Protasiewicz currently serves on a lower court and is heavily backed by the Democratic Party. Mr. Kelly was appointed to fill a vacancy on the Wisconsin Supreme Court in 2016 but lost an election in 2020 to retain his seat and has worked as a lawyer for the Republican Party in the time since he left the bench.
