In Landmark Move, US Supreme Court May Strike Down Mail-Order Abortions

-

In a move that could save millions of pre-born lives, the United States has agreed to hear a case arguing that the Food and Drug Administration violated federal law when it announced it would allow pills to be sent through the mail.

With many abortion clinics going out of business, a majority of abortions in the U.S. are committed at home with the use of chemical pills, despite the medical risks.

In an effort to boost abortion, the 's announced it would ignore a federal law prohibiting the mailing or delivery of at-home abortion chemicals.

The Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that while the controversial abortion chemical mifepristone could remain on the market, the FDA violated the law in allowing it to be prescribed and sent through the mail – where it can be used without medical supervision, and even given to women without their consent or knowledge.

“The Supreme Court and the entire country will hear the facts about Democrats' dangerous mail-order abortion scheme. Working hand-in-glove with the abortion lobby, the FDA has misled the American people with its repeated claims that the abortion pill regimen is ‘safe and effective,' all while they removed basic safeguards like in-person doctor supervision. This not only flies in the face of science and common sense, but the 5th Circuit agreed it most likely broke the law. The people aren't buying it, either – especially when they learn the FDA doesn't track serious complications other than death,” said Anthony Pro-Life America's State Policy Director Katie Daniel.

“Under multiple Democrat administrations, the FDA has put before its duty to protect health and safety, with tragic results. Without oversight, abortion pills easily get into the hands of abusers and jealous exes. Not only have countless babies died, mothers have also died. The FDA is not above the law, and there must be justice for the harm they cause,” said Daniel.

“As a practicing OB-GYN with over 30 years of experience, I have seen first-hand what the abortion pill regimen has done to my patients, both mother and child. As many as one in five women will suffer a complication such as a hemorrhage or infection, and I have cared for many of these women in the ER.” said Ingrid Skop, M.D., F.A.C.O.G., a board-certified OB-GYN who serves as vice president and director of medical affairs at Charlotte Lozier Institute.

“The Biden administration's decision to weaken commonsense safeguards and remove doctors from the process shows they prioritize abortion on demand over the mother's safety. I hope the Supreme Court realizes that the lives of many babies and women are at risk. The FDA must be held accountable for its callous actions,” said Dr. Skop.
