Attorney General Josh Stein has spoken out on the recent Supreme Court case regarding Mifepristone, emphasizing the importance of protecting women's reproductive rights. In a statement, Attorney General Stein highlighted the implications of restricting access to medication abortion, stating, "Restricting access to a safe, effective medication isn’t about health – it’s about controlling women, and it’s wrong and unlawful. Decisions about reproductive care are personal and should be made by women and their doctors."

Furthermore, Attorney General Stein expressed concern over the erosion of reproductive freedoms following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, stating, "Ever since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, too many politicians are stripping women of their reproductive freedoms. I will keep fighting to protect women’s reproductive care."

Attorney General Stein had previously filed a friend-of-the-court brief in the Supreme Court case, urging the court to safeguard medication abortion access. As the debate on reproductive rights continues, Attorney General Stein remains steadfast in his commitment to advocating for women's reproductive care.
