'Murder by mail': Pro-life leaders react to Supreme Court abortion pill decision
2. Tony Perkins
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, who formerly served in the Louisiana state Legislature and is also a Southern Baptist pastor, issued a statement denouncing the Supreme Court's order.
“The Court's action today perpetuates the Biden-era murder by mail policy that undermines the right of states to protect life and endangers women. This policy, left in place by the Trump FDA, has driven an estimated 21% increase in abortion,” said Perkins.
“The fight for life will not stop, and I am confident the state of Louisiana will not back down from their responsibility to uphold their duly enacted laws protecting the unborn.”
Perkins also called upon the FDA to “immediately suspend mifepristone and its generic forms from the market, while it rapidly conducts a transparent, scientifically unbiased assessment of their risks and safety — ideally resulting in their permanent removal from the market.”
