Team — did you
see the news?

Last week, the Supreme Court temporarily preserved access to mifepristone,
a pill used in 2/3 of all abortions nationwide. 

In April 2023, a Federal Judge in Texas overturned the FDA’s approval of
mifepristone — a drug that for 20 years has been scientifically proven to
be safe and effective.  

When that lawsuit was filed, I couldn’t stand on the sidelines. I joined
several states to file a brief urging the Supreme Court against
restricting mifepristone, and filed my own lawsuit that nullified the
Texas case’s impact on Washington and 17 other states.

While this recent attack on reproductive freedom may have failed, we can’t
let our guard down. This wasn’t the first radical attack on abortion
access, and it won’t be the last. 

In my lawsuit against the FDA, I will continue to argue that the current
guidelines for mifepristone are unnecessary and unlawful. Mifepristone is
one of just 70 drugs regulated by the FDA that are heavily restricted —
even though it’s safer than “low-risk” drugs like penicillin and Viagra! I
will fight to expand access to this safe medication. 

Our fight for reproductive freedom must continue — and not just in court. 

Your freedoms are at stake in this election. Anti-choice Republican Dave
Reichert voted for a nationwide abortion ban that would have instituted
criminal penalties against doctors. His positions are so extreme, the
Seattle Times labeled him an “anti-abortion stalwart.”

As Governor, I will always fight to preserve access to safe, effective
abortions.

Thank you,
