Abortion Pill Access: The U.S. Supreme Court kept mifepristone available by mail and without in-person visits for now, extending access until at least Thursday as it weighs whether restrictions can take effect—an ongoing fight tied to Louisiana’s lawsuit against FDA rules. Public Safety & Health: Louisiana State Police say an 81-year-old Opelousas man reported missing in a Silver Alert was found dead after his vehicle left the roadway and was hidden by dense foliage. Louisiana Justice: Louisiana state police and a local sheriff’s office agreed to pay $4.85 million to the daughter of Ronald Greene, a Black motorist who died after a 2019 stun-gun arrest. National Health Policy: FDA commissioner Marty Makary resigned, with Kyle Diamantas named acting commissioner.
