ACLU sues Federal Drug Administration to increase access to dangerous abortion pill

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed a lawsuit on Tuesday, October 3, 2017, against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, challenging federal restrictions on access to the abortion pill Mifeprex. For safety reasons, the abortion pill can only be obtained at a clinic, hospital, or medical office; however, the ACLU wants the pill to be available at pharmacies.

The lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court of Hawaii on behalf of Dr. Graham Chelius and health care associations. Chelius has a medical practice in Waimea, Hawaii, and says there are no abortion providers on the island. He wants the abortion pill to be available at pharmacies so that his patients can abort their preborn children without having to travel to another island.

The abortion pill ends the life of a preborn child by cutting off blood and nutrients. Former abortionist Dr. Anthony Levatino explains the process in the video below:

The abortion pill has risks for the women who take it, including heavy, long-term bleeding, uterine and bladder infections, and even death. At least 14 women have died from the abortion pill. Women have shared their horror stories from experiences with the abortion pill which prove that not only are the FDA’s safety regulations necessary, but abortion of any kind, including pill-form, is dangerous.

From a 30-year-old mother of two who took the abortion pill:

“Amber” shared her story:

Former Planned Parenthood employee Abby Johnson said this about her experience:

Proponents of easier access to the abortion pill claim it is safe for women and want women to take the abortion pill at home. However, what they are doing is opening the door for more women to be injured or killed through risky, at-home abortions without a doctor available to commit a surgical abortion if and when the abortion pill fails and the mother needs medical intervention.

Dr. Donna Harrison, executive director of the American Association of Pro-life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, told NPR that the lawsuit puts women in danger. “Is the pharmacist going to answer her call at 5 in the morning when she’s suffering or needs some help? The pharmacist is not going to be there.”

If you or someone you know regrets taking the abortion pill, it may not be too late to save your preborn baby. Abortion pill reversal is possible. Help is available at AbortionPillReversal.com or 1-877-558-0333.
