From the ACX 2025 Prediction Contest:

I will resolve according to the Metaculus resolution:
This question will resolve as Yes if, before January 1, 2026, prescribing mifepristone for medical abortions in the United States becomes either:

  • illegal or

  • significantly restricted, as to prevent the majority of pregnancies in their sixth week from being terminated via mifepristone in every state.

This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
