In a Thursday press release, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser referred to the FDA’s decision as “reckless” and “unconscionable.” 

“These dangerous drugs take the lives of unborn children, place women and underage girls at serious risk, empower abusers, and trample the pro-life laws enacted by states across the nation,” Dannenfelser stated. 

The pro-life leader highlighted Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and FDA Commissioner Marty Makary’s promise from earlier this year to conduct a safety review of abortion drugs. Dannenfelser warned that the completion of the review has become “more urgent given this approval to flood the market with a cheap abortion drug.” 

The SBA Pro-Life America president asserted that the FDA must, at the very least, reverse the Biden-era policy that allowed for mail-order abortion drugs without in-person medical oversight. Dannenfelser warned that the policy must be reversed “without delay.” 

“Women are endangered by taking the drugs without a sonogram to check for ectopic pregnancy and confirm the gestational age of the child,” the pro-life leader stated. 

“President Trump believes states have the right to pass and enforce pro-life protections. Yet every day this right is being trampled upon by the abortion industry,” she added.
