DeFraming SCOTUS: Shedding Light on Who Can Challenge Regulatory Bodies
Manage episode 423635889 series 2996412
In a unanimous ruling, the Supreme Court addressed the abortion pill, but only to establish clearer guideposts as to when doctors can challenge the FDA in a federal lawsuit. The case revolved around private plaintiffs who objected to relaxed rules around abortion pills but failed to demonstrate a personal injury, lacking standing as a result. This decision sets an important precedent: individuals must show clear harm, not just moral or ideological objections, to challenge government rules through the court system. Join The Lieb Cast as we explore the implications of this ruling for future attempts to sue agencies based on policy disagreements alone.
