The case filed by abortion opponents who helped challenge Roe v. Wade seeks to reverse a decades-old approval by the Food and Drug Administration.

The lawsuit was filed by the group Alliance Defending Freedom, which was also involved in the Mississippi case that led to Roe v. Wade being overturned.

But in its legal response, the agency said it didn’t accelerate the drug’s approval, which came four years after the manufacturer first submitted its application to market the pill. Kacsmaryk, who previously ruled against a program providing free birth control to minors in Texas, could also issue a ruling rolling back regulators’on the pill’s availability. Those have been based on scientific studies showing women can safely use the drug at home.

Abortion medication is approved for use up to the 10th week of pregnancy. Mifepristone is taken first, swallowed by mouth. The drug dilates the cervix and blocks the effects of the hormone progesterone, which is needed to sustain a pregnancy.

It literally kills people. It isn’t safe.

Mifepristone is the primary treatment for the life-threatening reality of ectopic pregnancy. There is no clause for medical exemption in this proposal. Do not let this policy take lives

It kills people, so it isn’t healthcare.
