The Supreme Court made a big decision about an abortion drug. It said women can still get mifepristone easily for now.

Women can still get this medicine at drugstores or by mail. They do not need a doctor's visit to get it.

Drug companies asked the court to keep access open. Two judges disagreed, saying the companies should not profit.

This legal fight started because of a lawsuit from Louisiana. The state wants to stop people from getting the medicine easily.

This case is part of a larger debate about abortion rights. Many states have already banned abortion since Roe v. Wade.
