Nearly two dozen state attorneys general sent a letter to Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf on Friday, urging the agency to reverse its “illegal and dangerous” decision to abandon certain restrictions concerning abortion pills.
The attorneys general told Califf that the FDA’s “decision to abandon commonsense restrictions on remotely prescribing and administering abortion-inducing drugs is both illegal and dangerous.”
mifepristone in 2000, “the agency recognized that the drug carried serious risks for women, including infection and bleeding” and historically imposed several restrictions to keep women safe. It is not seriously disputed that provisions like these are lawful and necessary to protect women’s health,” the letter continues.
“Most importantly, the FDA has ignored its responsibility to protect health and safety by prioritizing a reckless pro-abortion policy over women’s health. Though there are risks to a woman of using these drugs at any point in pregnancy, abortion-inducing drug are riskiest when used later in pregnancy,” the letter reads. “This means that accurately determining the date of pregnancy is critical for women’s safety. And that determination will be accurate only if made in-person via ultrasound.
