Two heavily Democratic states, California and Massachusetts, are stockpiling abortion pills to counter the harm caused by the federal judge's recent ruling that halted the FDA approval of Mifepristone, which anti-abortion conservatives have hailed as a victory. On Monday, California Governor Gavin Newsom announced that the state has secured up to two million Misoprostol pills, which is widely used as an abortion medication, as an alternative to Mifepristone.

In addition, Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has announced that the state has begun stockpiling Mifepristone ahead of the court injunction that could make the drug illegal by Friday. A significant dramatic reaction, Democrats in these predominantly blue states are creatively fighting back by buying the drug in bulk to maintain reproductive freedom. Furthermore, state law backs pharmacies and healthcare providers to continue stocking and dispensing the drug without legal liability.

The likelihood of these matters reaching the Supreme Court is high, but the measures taken by blue states seem to be a signal of catching up that will not encourage anti-abortion politicians. Now red states are taking anti-abortion regulations to court, which will affect the national agenda concerning the constitutional right of abortion.
