Over-the-counter birth-control pills would be good for the people who need them. They're also guaranteed to set off the right wing, which appears likely to oppose efforts to make the pill more available. onesarahjones writes
Photo: Paul Chinn/The San Francisco Chronicle via Getty Images The Food and Drug Administration has received an application to provide a birth-control pill over the counter, the New York Times reported on Monday. The news comes less than a month after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, and while the French company that manufactures the pill says the timing is coincidental, it nonetheless arrives at a crucial moment for Americans who can become pregnant.
“As we are seeing the outfall and the chaos of the Supreme Court decision, more families are looking to, ‘Well, how can I make sure I control my own choices in life?’” Senator Patty Murray, a Democrat who is the lead sponsor of a bill that would require insurance companies to cover the cost of over-the-counter contraceptive pills, told the Times. “We want to make sure that women not only get access, but those who have trouble affording it get access as well.
In a concurrence to Dobbs, Justice Clarence Thomas urged the court to reconsider previous rulings including Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage, and Griswold v. Connecticut, which found that married couples had a right to contraception, like the birth-control pill.
