Florida is the latest example of how quickly and dramatically state laws are changing in the wake of last year's Supreme Court decision striking down Roe v. Wade.
A federal appeals court on Wednesday overrode a Texas judge's decision to halt the Food and Drug Administration's approval of the abortion pill mifepristone, but still enacted new restrictions on the drug. Meanwhile, the Justice Department said it plans to ask the Supreme Court to appeal the Texas judge's decision. CBS News legal contributor Jessica Levinson examined the latest ruling.
The Justice Department says it will ask the Supreme Court to pause an appeals court decision that kept access to mifepristone, a commonly used abortion pill, but imposed some restrictions that will make it harder to get. Republican Rep. Nancy Mace speaks to "Red & Blue" about the abortion pill debate.
The court maintained access to mifepristone for the time being but is only letting it be dispensed after a doctor's office visit, not by mail, and up to seven weeks into a pregnancy, not 10.
