8:31 pm
fog. so, yeah, kind of feel the season out there as we're going to see a return of some patchy fog tonight. me i've got mostly clear skies. some high clouds up above and a couple of patches of fog trying to flirt with the coastline, looking toward the golden gate bridge, some high clouds there, but no fog just yet. but that will likely change as we head throughout the night tonight, temperature wise, you're still looking at some very nice number. 66 in san jose right now. 71 in dublin in concord, 72 in pittsburgh and brentwood about 7 in cloverdale. 69 in santa rosa. cool 50's along the coastline. looks like we're going to see return of some patchy fog developing along the coastline overnight tonight. but i don't think much of that gets inside the base. your skies going to be staying mostly sunny and clear all weekend long except for the coastline. that's where you'll find some of the fog and some of the cooler weather 50's and 60's in the san francisco for tomorrow plan a 50's 60's along the coastline. but that patchy fog. but inside the bay start to warm up with a lot of sunshine. 71 redwood city, 73 in mount view. lots of 70's, almost 80 degrees in campbell. 79 in

>> now at 8.30, the u.s. supreme court is allowing the popular abortion medication to remain on the market while a legal challenge to its approval goes through the court system, that co is mifepristone. it is used in more than half of us abortions. >> more than 5 million us women have taken it. so it's it was approved more than 20 years ago. today's ruling blocks a lower court ruling put restrictions on that pill. for more now on the legal battle ahead, we're joined by jessica levinson, professor of law and director of the public service institute and journalist law school. >> at loyola marymount professor, thanks for being with us. i guess when this court overturned roe v wade, we thought it would be up to the individual states to decide where things go with abortion rights in this country. but this just got a
8:36 pm
lot more complicated. did didn't with. now the fda is involved in it could affect even states. it have no bans against abortion. >> well, that's exactly right. we're talking about a nationwide injunction on the fda's approval of mifepristone almost a quarter century ago. and that would obviously affect states where there is access to abortion as well. and so i think you're right to point that out that in dobbs, the majority said, okay, now we're getting out of the business of litigating these abortion issues. we're going to leave it to the political branches and the dissent said, of course not. this is just going to bring up more questions. we can possibly even think through at this moment. and i have to say, given all the litigation that we've seen, i think the dissent was right on that point. >> professor expense suggested that if the court had gone a different way, it would have been chaos. is that hyperbole? would it have been chaotic? >> i think it would have been at the very least extremely
8:37 pm
confusing because let's remember, it's not just a single federal judge saying to the fda what you did 23 years ago and then the changes that you made in 2016 2021 to loosen the restrictions on mifepristone. it won't just be wiping those off of the books. we also had a competing ruling almost exactly the same moment i think was 15 minutes later from a federal district court judge in washington states that ruling applied to 18 states and that judge said fda don't do anything, don't change the status quo. don't make it more difficult to obtain mifepristone. so at least for those 18 jurisdictions that are covered by the washington federal judge's ruling i think there would have been enormous confusion as twitch ruling to follow. in addition, the fda does have something called enforcement discretion. and i think there would have been confusion as to whether or not
8:38 pm
they would decide to enforce this texas district court judge's decision to add to the complication and confusion with the fda being this potentially could affect every drug that the fda >> has to approve or not approve. so individual judges could start cherry picking drugs that are out there on the market already and say, hey, i want to challenge this or with the supreme this only applies to these specific abortion drugs. could they do that? >> well, this court can't say it only applies to abortion drugs, but it can say it only applies to the way that the fda didn't allegedly follow its procedures when it approved this abortion drive. i think you're playing for your question is really important, which is it doesn't just stop with mifepristone recently, a single federal court judge can say what an executive agency in this case, the fda did. >> it's inappropriate and
8:39 pm
undermine even our understanding from decades ago that makes drug companies very anxious and it's not going to be the cholesterol kedication that's challenge. it will probably be something much more controversial like vaccines. and we can imagine plaintiffs picking the types of medications that they don't like and shout saying this is the case that i can point to to give me a pathway to challenge the next thing that is unpopular. >> professor, how likely is this to land back at the supreme court? >> exceeding way. so all the supreme court did today was say we're pushing pause. we're maintaining the status quo. that's exactly what you should do when a case is still being litigated is still being appealed. so what's going to happen now is the 5th circuit. that's that intermediate appellate court in between the district court in the supreme court. dale, he'll hear oral arguments in this case on may 17th. then i expect that whoever loses that case. we'll
8:40 pm
appeal back up to the supreme court. then it's a question of how the supreme court will rule on the substance on the merit. not just on whether or not they should push paused temporarily on a right? so the >> whoever loses the case with the 5th circuit is bound to appeal. goes back to the u.s. supreme court. now they're not talking about overturning roe v wade. this is a whole new set of legal arguments involving the fda and and its authority. correct? >> that's exactly right. this is not about whether or not the constitution protects the right to obtain an abortion. the court has said that it is not it made that decision in the dobbs case that overturned roe v wade. this is really an administrative law case dealing with exactly what you said, the power of the fda and who can challenge that. >> justices thomas and alito made a point of publicly dissenting today. what if anything, do you make of that? well, i think we can suspect what they will think about the
8:41 pm
merits of this particular the fact that they were comfortable with this texas district court judge's ruling going into effect. >> i think gives us a pretty clear indication of how they will ultimately vote when the case comes out to them and they have to consider the merits of it. professor jessica levinson, it's always a pleasure to talk to specially someone who knows what they're talking about on such a complicated issue. we really. >> really appreciate your insight here. thank you very much. thank you. still ahead tonight on kron, 4 news at 8, how aspiring bay area singers are turning their dreams into a music career. >> with the help of grammy-winning artist.
8:42 pm

8:45 pm
the bat from jonah heim, his 4th of the season. >> made it 4, nothing rangers, but they stick to what? and tied it in the 6 on this seeing eye single to left by a state ruiz that tied it up at 4. a piece and it stayed that way until the top of the 9th. when a diaz hit his first homer of the season that gave the a's a 5, 4, lead and they held on to beat the rangers in the first game of the series snapping texas is winning street. depp's fans are still flying high after last night's 114 to 97 win over the sacramento kings. it was the kind of balanced effort. it's really been alluding the warriors often this season. steph curry was masterful ce shows shot 6 threes. >> dropped. 36 points on 12 for 25 shooting. didn't miss from the charity stripe and his teammates played their best ball when it counted even without their 2 best defenders in draymond green. and gary payton, the second they held
8:46 pm
