Matthew Kacsmaryk, a federal judge appointed during Donald Trump’s term, has decided to ban an abortion pill that has been on the market for more than 20 years. A decision that the Biden government opposes.
One man decides for tens of millions of American women. Federal judge Matthew Kacsmaryk has just withdrawn, on Friday April 7, the marketing authorization for Mifepristone, an abortion pill prescribed for more than 20 years in the United States. Appointed by Donald Trump, the judge refutes the use of the term “fetus“, preferring that of “unborn human“.

“There is evidence that the U.S. Medicines Agency faced intense political pressure to drop its safety precautions, in order to promote the political goal of expanding abortion rights.“, he said to justify his decision. The Biden administration, which has seven days to appeal, has already indicated that it will not let him. Donald Trump is the one to have appointed several ultra-conservative judges, notably to the Supreme Court.
