The Supreme Court has briefly paused a ruling by a federal judge in Texas that ordered the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to suspend its approval of mifepristone, a medication commonly used in abortions. 

Justice Samuel Alito issued the order Friday afternoon from the court’s “shadow docket” — a collection of cases that require immediate action — effectively keeping the status quo in place until midnight on April 19. During that time, the court will further consider the Biden administration’s emergency request for a stay.

The Justice Department and the manufacturer of the brand name version of the pill had asked the court to temporarily reinstate full access to mifepristone, or to quickly hold briefings and hear oral arguments before the court’s term ends this summer.

The health of the banking sector has been a concern since the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank in March, but large banks reported increases in profits Friday. 

The nation’s largest bank, JPMorgan Chase, reported a 52 percent increase in profits over last year’s first quarter. Wells Fargo reported a 32 percent increase, Citigroup a 23 percent increase and PNC Financial Services, an increase of 18 percent, The Hill’s Karl Evers-Hillstrom wrote.

More from Evers-Hillstrom: “While the Federal Reserve’s interest rate hikes contributed to SVB’s failure — the bank loaded up on long-term treasury bonds that plummeted in value after rates rose — they’re helping the largest lenders.” 

And from Wells Fargo CEO Charles Scharf: “Our franchise, and those of many other banks, operate with a broader business model and more diversified funding sources.”
