A Food and Drug Administration advisory panel recently recommended allowing birth control pills to be sold without a prescription.
While more than 100 countries currently allow access to birth control pills over the counter, the U.S. is not one of them.
Washington Senator Patty Murray says it's important that the pill is easily available - but also affordable.
When - and if - that day comes and the pill is available over the counter, Murray wants to require insurance companies to cover the cost, free of charge.
NPR's Sarah McCammon speaks with Senator Murray on the proposed legislation.
And we hear the latest on the legal challenge to the abortion medication mifepristone, as attorneys gather in New Orleans at the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals to argue whether it should be removed from the market.
NPR's Becky Sullivan and Selena Simmons-Duffin contributed reporting on the real-life experiences of individuals taking mifepristone.

Featured Story:
Is an opinion piece by John Rizzo a senior vice president for public affairs at Clyde Group, titled: Elizabeth Warren’s Bill Won’t Stop Money Laundering, but It Could Ban Crypto
On today's show, we discuss the Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Act, which is being pushed by Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS), and aims to close loopholes that criminals may exploit to launder money through crypto assets. However, it appears that this legislation may actually further a strategy to ban crypto.

NBN Book of the Day - Stefan Lorenz Sorgner, “We Have Always Been Cyborgs: Digital Data, Gene Technologies, and an Ethics of Transhumanism” (Bristol UP, 2023)
The concept of transhumanism emerged in the middle of the 20th century, and has influenced discussions around AI, brain–computer interfaces, genetic technologies and life extension. Despite its enduring influence in the public imagination, a fully developed philosophy of transhumanism has not yet been presented.
In We Have Always Been Cyborgs: Digital Data, Gene Technologies, and an Ethics of Transhumanism (Bristol UP, 2023), leading philosopher Stefan Lorenz Sorgner explores the critical issues that link transhumanism with digitalization, gene technologies and ethics. He examines the history and meaning of transhumanism and asks bold questions about human perfection, cyborgs, genetically enhanced entities, and uploaded minds.
Offering insightful reflections on values, norms and utopia, this will be an important guide for readers interested in contemporary digital culture, gene ethics, and policy making.
Frances Sacks is a graduate of Wesleyan University where she studied in the Science and Society Program.
