FDA Abandons Women, States Come to Defense


This week, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) announced it
will not enforce a longstanding policy during the COVID-19 pandemic
that requires abortion-inducing drugs to be dispensed during an
in-person doctor's visit. In-person appointments are critical to
minimize serious health risks to women both before and after an
abortion. But, the Biden Administration chose to appease the powerful
abortion lobby instead of protecting women.

This announcement is very likely the pre-cursor to a permanent removal
of this important safety regulation and others which will put
countless women at risk of health complications, including death.

Chemical abortion is big-and risky-business, especially
for Planned Parenthood, where chemical

Abortion by pill statistics
abortion makes up 56% of all abortions performed. This is not by
accident. Abortion activists have been quietly building a new business
model to target young women through their phones and the internet.
When safety regulations are loosened - as the FDA has just done
- women suffer. Abortion-inducing drugs are four times more
dangerous than surgical abortion, and can cause severe infection,
heavy bleeding, loss of fertility and even death.

The change in policy at the FDA is just the latest example of the
Biden Administration's anti-woman agenda, which also includes a
push to allow men to take women's places in athletic
competitions and to give them access to private women's spaces
like locker rooms, bathrooms and shelters. Fortunately, the states are
pushing back on the Administration's radical social agenda and
are making great strides to protect women.

Family Policy Alliance is part of a national coalition of pro-life,
pro-woman organizations that has been working across the nation this
year to regulate the chemical abortion industry state by state. We
realized last year that the federal FDA safety regulations for
chemical abortion drugs were at great risk of repeal if a pro-abortion
president were elected.  It's clear that each state must
pass protocols to regulate the dispensing and reporting of
abortion-inducing pills if women are to be protected long-term.

Already, six states (Arizona, Arkansas, Indiana, Montana, Oklahoma,
and Texas) have acted on our coalition's model legislation to
codify the FDA's longstanding safety regulations, prevent
mail-order abortions, and mandate reporting of chemical abortions.
 Half of them - Arkansas, Indiana, and Montana - are
awaiting their governor's signature, and several more states are
expected to introduce the legislation soon.

As the Biden Administration runs full steam ahead with an anti-woman
and anti-life agenda, FPA and our allies will continue to advocate for
the rights and safety of women and children in every state. Your
support - both prayerfully and financially - enables us to
keep fighting for the family. For that, we are most grateful.

Sincerely,


Amanda Banks
Director, External Relations
