ADF to FDA: Women deserve better

Dr. Christina Francis, Dr. Shaun Jester, Dr. Donna Harrison, and Dr. Tyler Johnson, doctors experienced in caring for pregnant and post-abortive women who joined the lawsuit challenging the FDA's illegal approval of chemical abortion drugs.

The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Erin Hawley, vice president of the Center for Life and regulatory practice, regarding the U.S. Department of Justice’s and Danco Laboratories’ briefs filed Friday with the U.S. Supreme Court in U.S. Food and Drug Administration v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine:

“Women should have the ongoing care of a doctor when taking high-risk drugs. The FDA betrayed women and girls when it removed the necessary in-person doctor visits that protected women’s health and well-being. The FDA’s own label for abortion drugs says that roughly one in 25 women who take them will end up in the emergency room. Yet the government continues to defend its reckless actions that jeopardize women’s health and safety. Women deserve better, and we look forward to advocating on their behalf at the Supreme Court on March 26.”
