Pence, who has unabashedly defended his anti-abortion stances, said the abortion drug should be off the market not only to “protect the unborn” but also because he thinks it poses risks to the health of mothers.

Former Vice President Mike Pence said Sunday he would like to see mifepristone, the widely used abortion pill at the center of a high-profile legal battle, off of the market, citing safety concerns.

The drug, which has been approved for use for over two decades, is at the center of a court battle. A federal judge in Texas initially invalidated the FDA’s approval of the pill, but the Supreme Court said the drug will remain available while an appeal plays out in a lower court. “I’m grateful that action is being taken in the courts to hold the FDA accountable to what the law requires,” Pence said. “So for the sake of protecting the unborn but also for the health and safety of women, I’m looking forward to this litigation continuing.”
