Reverse the Mifepristone Decision—Protect & Expand Abortion Access
The Supreme Court held oral arguments on the future of mifepristone–a FDA approved, safe and effective abortion drug. The same justices who overturned constitutional protections for abortion in Roe v. Wade two years ago are set to announce a ruling in the coming months that could deal a devastating blow to our health care and bodily autonomy.
The courts and Congress must reverse this harmful decision concerning mifepristone and uphold the law for the sake of our health, autonomy, and freedom.
Why is this important?
The ruling in Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA ordering the FDA to withdraw its approval of mifepristone is unconscionable. Mifepristone—approved more than 20 years ago and used effectively by millions of people for medication abortion—is perfectly safe. Anti-abortion extremists are attempting to use the courts to ban abortion nationwide, even in states that have legal protections for abortion access.
That's why together we are asking higher courts to reverse this unprecedented and anti-abortion ruling and restore access to mifepristone—and asking Congress to act to protect and expand access to abortion care.
