Over 70 Congress members are calling for “equitable, science-based” policies governing access to the abortion pill.
“Abortion pills have proven to be both safe and effective, yet needless restrictions are making it harder for women to access the care they need,” said DeGette. “As co-chair of the Pro-Choice Caucus, we are committed to eliminating all unnecessary barriers to abortion care, including the onerous and unnecessary restrictions on the use of medication abortion.
We look forward to working with the FDA to ensure any policies regarding the use of mifepristone are based solely on science and evidence, not politics or ideology.”“For people already experiencing health disparities—including people of color, people with lower incomes, and people in rural communities–the FDA’s restrictions often push access to medication abortion out of reach,” said Lee. “We cannot allow discriminatory stigma to keep people from accessing the health care they deserve.
