The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld a preliminary injunction allowing these centers to continue promoting abortion pill reversal, determining that their speech is &#8220;noncommercial&#8221; and constitutionally protected. The court noted that the centers do not profit from these statements and that the speech is motivated by moral and religious beliefs. Abortion pill reversal is controversial: anti-abortion advocates claim it can undo the effects of the abortion pill mifepristone by administering high doses of progesterone, while abortion-rights supporters argue the treatment is unproven.

Abortion-rights advocates claim that medication abortions cannot be reversed and that such treatment is unproven. James claimed in her lawsuit that pregnancy centers were promoting the treatment, making false and misleading statements about it.<\/p>\n<p>The Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative law firm that helped represent the groups suing James in this case, celebrated the ruling as a victory for advocates seeking to dissuade pregnant women from going forward with an abortion.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Many women regret their abortions, and some change their minds after taking the first abortion drug and want to try to save their unborn babies&rsquo; lives. They should be allowed to hear about this option and make that choice,&rdquo; ADF Senior Counsel Caroline Lindsay said in a statement. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The court is correct to affirm that women in New York have the right to access information about safe and effective supplemental progesterone through their local pregnancy centers, regardless of what the attorney general may personally believe. The First Amendment clearly protects the right to speak and hear about this potentially life-saving option,&rdquo; the statement continued.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3900403\/trump-starting-to-see-wins-in-transgender-court-battles\/\">TRUMP STARTING TO SEE WINS IN TRANSGENDER COURT BATTLES<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The fight over abortion pill reversal treatments is one of several legal battles involving abortion and pregnancy centers that have brewed in the aftermath of the 2022 <em>Dobbs<\/em> decision, which returned much of abortion law to the states.<\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court will hear arguments <span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">on Tuesday in a&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/3895200\/supreme-court-new-jersey-first-choice-donor-list-identity-privacy-case\/\">case<\/a>&nbsp;over whether a pregn<\/span>ancy center can challenge the constitutionality of a subpoena from New Jersey, which would require it to reveal some of its donor list.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Appeals court lets NY pregnancy centers promote abortion reversal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2638,"featured_media":2516314,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/AP22027684343629.jpg?w=696","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[68034,33740,32120,68033],"class_list":["post-2516313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-abortion-reversal","tag-court-ruling","tag-new-york","tag-pregnancy-centers"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/AP22027684343629.jpg?w=696","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2516313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2638"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2516313"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2516313\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2516321,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2516313\/revisions\/2516321"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2516314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2516313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2516313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2516313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
