Lila Rose, pro-life activist and founder of the advocacy group Live Action, expressed disappointment with the ruling in a statement shared with The Christian Post.

"The Supreme Court had an opportunity to respect the rule of law and rein in the Biden administration's most egregious recent actions, including its decision to allow the abortion pill to be illegally shipped through the mail without an in-person doctor visit. It is regrettable that the Court declined to rule on that issue."

Rose warned that "The Biden administration FDA's unlawful and dangerous expansion of the abortion pill will continue to kill children and endanger their mothers because of the Supreme Court's inaction."

"The Court did not consider the merits of this case; every other federal court that has reviewed the case's merits has found that the Biden administration acted illegally in their abortion pill expansion. Instead, the Court ruled on purely procedural grounds, finding that the doctors who challenged the rules lacked standing because they do not perform abortions."

She asserted that "the Supreme Court cannot ignore this forever" because "abortion pills will be back in court soon, as multiple state attorneys general have joined the challenge to the Biden administration's reckless rules."

Rose suggested that "our abortion pill crisis will not end until drugs that kill children are pulled from the market, whether by the Supreme Court or the next president."
