Supreme Court Rejects Arizona Bid to Limit Use of Abortion Pill 
----------------------------------------------------------------


 
In a victory for reproductive rights, the U.S. Supreme Court has let
stand a lower court decision blocking an Arizona law which restricted
the use of the pill form of abortion. The law required the use of an
outdated and cumbersome protocol for the medication mifepristone. The
lower court found the law imposed an "undue restriction" on abortion.
