Idaho, Kansas and Missouri can pursue legal action to prohibit the Food and Drug Administration from allowing online prescriptions.

The states want the federal Food and Drug Administration to prohibit telehealth prescriptions for mifepristone and require that it be used only in the first seven weeks of pregnancy instead of the current limit of 10 weeks.

Instead of dismissing the case, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk said three states with no connection to Texas can sue the FDA to try to reimpose restrictions on mifepristone.
