Excerpt: U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk’s lawless and unprecedented decision ordering the Food and Drug Administration to revoke approval of mifepristone, the first drug in a medication abortion, poses an existential threat to the entire industry: If upheld, the order would allow any doctor to file a lawsuit compelling the FDA to revoke approval of any drug they dislike. If any such suit succeeds, a single, handpicked judge could overrule the FDA’s scientific determinations and issue a nationwide block on that medication. The drug need not have anything to do with reproductive health: vaccines, antibiotics, antidepressants, hormones, statins, painkillers—all are vulnerable under Kacsmaryk’s decision. It's actually an interesting read.
