FDA Abortion Drug Rules Under Fire | Boise News

A Virginia federal judge has struck down the FDA’s 2023 restrictions on mifepristone, ruling the agency failed to properly justify rules like prescriber certification and risk disclosures — calling them arbitrary and medically unnecessary. This follows a similar Hawaii court decision, forcing the FDA to revisit its justifications. Abortion care providers celebrate the ruling as a win against burdensome paperwork, freeing up time for patients. Meanwhile, the Biden administration’s 2023 mail-order expansion of mifepristone — which boosted access in restrictive states — continues to face legal challenges from anti-abortion groups seeking tighter controls.

DHS Surveillance and Free Speech | Boise News

Three activists are suing the Department of Homeland Security for allegedly spying on and targeting them during the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration — claiming their First Amendment rights were violated as they protested and observed enforcement actions. The suit details how federal agents allegedly used facial recognition and license plate readers to identify observers, then intimidated them — including revealing home addresses in a practice Minnesotans call “being driven home by ICE.” One plaintiff, Nicole Cleland, says she stopped observing DHS operations after her Global Entry status was revoked, fearing retaliation. The lawsuit also accuses DHS of abandoning its own facial recognition policy without proper procedure, and while DHS insists trusted traveler status is revoked only for legal violations — not protest — the plaintiffs argue this is a chilling tactic to silence dissent.
