Attorneys general from Louisiana, Alabama and Arkansas filed suit directly with the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) on Wednesday, arguing that abortion shield laws in New York, Massachusetts and California are unconstitutional.

The complaint asks SCOTUS to find the shield laws violate the Full Faith and Credit Clause, the equal sovereignty doctrine, the Dormant Commerce Clause and the federal common law of public nuisance, and seeks an injunction blocking enforcement.

Federal regulations permit abortion pills to be prescribed via telehealth and dispensed by mail. Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall issued cease-and-desist letters in June to six companies accused of sending the drugs into his state.
