WASHINGTON, D.C. – SBA Pro-Life America today slammed Democrat-run states for encouraging abortionists to mail dangerous abortion pills into pro-life states. The Washington Post falsely claimed such actions are legal.
“Mailing abortion pills into pro-life states is not legal, no matter how the Democrats and their media cheerleaders want it to be. And the strong majority of Americans agree it is not safe,” said SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “What women aren’t told about the risks of DIY abortion pills can seriously harm them, including complications like hemorrhage, infection, need for surgery or even death. With no doctor in the room or even in the same state, there is no way to be sure how far along a woman’s pregnancy is, or screen for ectopic pregnancy that puts her at 30% greater risk of dying than if she had not undergone abortion. Biden and the Democrats show no concern for women’s safety or respect for the law and the will of the people. They are determined to impose their extreme abortion agenda at all costs, with no protections for women or children.”
Aid Access, the pro-abortion activist group featured in the article, has a long history of flouting U.S. law.
Dannenfelser continued, “More than ever, we need a national defender of life and a pro-life administration who will enforce pro-life state protections to serve moms and save children and ultimately hold reckless sellers of dangerous abortion pills accountable.”
Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America is a network of more than one million pro-life Americans nationwide, dedicated to ending abortion by electing national leaders and advocating for laws that save lives, with a special calling to promote pro-life women leaders.
