SCOTUS Hears Major Abortion Pill Challenge; Baltimore's Key Bridge Collapses After Ship Strike

The U.S. Supreme Court will start hearing arguments against the abortion drug mifepristone this week, with a decision expected in around three months. Pro-abortion activists claim that mifepristone has been proven safe, and that blocking the drug would harm the interests of millions of women. However, the pro-life Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine is arguing that the FDA made two changes related to mifepristone in 2016 and 2021 that removed key safety protocols protecting women.

A cargo ship hit the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland in the early hours of March 26, causing the bridge to collapse. At least seven vehicles and as many as 20 people fell into the water, according to city officials.

President Joe Biden addressed the collapse, promising federal support.
