SBA Pro Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser said there are numerous documented cases of abortion drug coercion.
“Easy access to dangerous abortion drugs online, without so much as an ID check, enables abusers to harm innocent women and children in places where we rightly expect the highest standard of conduct,” Dannenfelser said in the SBA Pro-Life release. “Nearly 70% of women having abortions are being pushed into a life-ending decision with lifelong repercussions, when they would rather keep their child, if they could just receive the support they deserve. With no choice and no doctor, the old talking points are completely hollow.”
The case has caused various anti-abortion groups to urge acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to remove mail-order abortion drugs from the market following a lawsuit, Louisiana v. FDA, challenging the FDA’s rule change to allow abortion drugs to be prescribed via telehealth, mail, and retail pharmacies.
