A major pro-life organization is calling on Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier to investigate a nonprofit it accuses of running "deceptive and misleading" abortion pill ads across the state. In a Sept. 19 letter, 40 Days for Life urged Uthmeier to take action against Mayday Health, a New York-based nonprofit that has placed billboards around Florida promoting the abortion pills mifepristone and misoprostol. The pro-life group argues the ads fail to disclose critical information, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) black box warnings about risks like hemorrhage and infection, while also omitting federally required safety protocols and potential legal consequences for Floridians.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office has declined to prosecute a woman who left a pro-life activist bloodied during a street interview in New York City earlier this year, according to attorneys from the Thomas More Society. New York police arrested Brianna J. Rivers, 30, in April on one count of second-degree assault after she sucker punched activist Savannah Craven Antao during a street interview on abortion. The attack was caught on camera as Craven Antao asked Rivers questions about abortion on behalf of the pro-life organization Live Action.

Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago is facing mounting criticism from two prominent American bishops. Senator Dick Durbin, a long-serving Illinois Democrat with a record of supporting abortion legislation, is to receive a "Lifetime Achievement Award" from the Archdiocese of Chicago. The award, due to be presented at the annual Keep Hope Alive fundraiser for the archdiocese's immigration ministry, is intended to recognise Durbin's decades of advocacy for migrants. The senator, who is Catholic, has been one of the principal sponsors of immigration reform in the U.S. Congress. Yet the choice has provoked a strong reaction because of Durbin's longstanding support for abortion.

National Right to Life has released a new report, Missed, Misclassified, and Minimized: Why Abortion Pill Complications Are Underreported, by Randall K. O'Bannon, Ph.D., National Right to Life Director of Education and Research. The findings highlight the reasons why serious complications from chemical abortions are often underreported or misreported. "The abortion pill is being sold as safe, but independent data tell another story," said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. "Women are being harmed, and the dangers are being ignored or hidden." The report highlights three major reasons for underreporting.

New York and Texas are going head-to-head in court over abortion pills and so-called "shield laws." New York Attorney General Letitia James said she would step into the legal fight over Texas' ban on abortion pills. This started when Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued Dr. Margaret Carpenter, a New York doctor, for breaking Texas law by mailing abortion pills to a woman in the state. Dr. Carpenter also co-founded a group that supports abortion providers in states with so-called "shield laws."

Fairfax County resident Rosie Kostka spoke to the Fairfax County Public Schools board meeting of her experience coaching a public school's ultimate frisbee team and teaching at Our Lady of Hope School in Potomac Falls. "Virginia state law says I cannot give my Fairfax County high school athletes Tylenol for a headache, yet these girls were brought to surgery without their parents knowing," she said. "As a teacher, I keep my kids' parents in the loop. I would expect the same outreach, not only from my child's teacher, but also from the school counselor dealing with something as big as a pregnancy. School does not exist to take guardianship of our children."

In response to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s update on the FDA's abortion drug safety review during his Senate Finance Committee hearing, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser issued the following statement: "We are grateful that Secretary Kennedy confirmed the FDA's review of abortion drugs is now underway and look forward to his promised release of new data after years of the Biden Administration ignoring this urgent issue. Secretary Kennedy even revealed that Biden's FDA 'twisted' data to bury safety signals."

Neutrality is not harmless. It is permission. And in the case of abortion, it is the quiet consent to end human lives. Today, the pro-life movement stands at a similar moral crossroads, again. With lives on the line, taking a neutral stance is not only irresponsible, it is dangerous. We are called not merely to speak out, but to lead. This includes supporting and advancing laws that challenge the status quo, stir controversy, and confront injustice head-on. Since the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade, the battleground has shifted from federal courts to state legislatures, and we must take definitive, courageous action.

Colorado lawmakers approved Senate Bill 25B-2, which directs state taxpayer dollars to cover up to $4.4 million in Medicaid reimbursements to abortion providers like Planned Parenthood. The bill responds to the provision defunding the abortion giant in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which became federal law in July. Though Colorado is facing a $1.2 billion budget deficient, pro-abortion Colorado lawmakers made it clear that fully funding Planned Parenthood with taxpayer dollars is a top priority.

A recent Wall Street Journal report described a new legal development in the fight to protect unborn life: a number of fathers are filing lawsuits over abortions carried out without their knowledge or consent. The suits claim harm from the loss of their children and seek accountability from those who facilitated the abortions, including doctors, family members, and abortion pill distributors. According to the outlet, many of these cases originate in Texas, where state law permits parents to sue for the wrongful death of an unborn child.

Students for Life Action (SFLAction) President Kristan Hawkins slammed Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker's for signing a bill forcing Chemical Abortion Pills onto public college campuses, calling it "outrageous that the abortion radicals are forcing today's students to subsidize ending the lives of the next generation. Pregnancy is not a disease cured by abortion." House Bill 3709 would require public colleges with student health centers to offer access to contraception and deadly Chemical Abortion Pills, turning college campuses into abortion distribution centers.

Texas lawmakers advanced a bill that would crack down on mail-order abortion pills. Today's initial vote presented the biggest hurdle for the Pro-Life policy to overcome. Now, the Woman and Child Protection Act (HB 7 by Rep. Jeff Leach, sponsored by Sen. Bryan Hughes) will head toward the House floor to be passed by all the representatives. Abortion businesses are abandoning brick-and-mortar facilities, shifting their tactics online and underground. Activists ship lethal pills into Texas illegally from other states and countries—to the tune of at least 19,000 orders of abortion drugs each year.

When the Supreme Court's landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health decision was released in June 2022, returning abortion law to state jurisdiction, pro-life activists knew what their greatest challenge would be in the post-Dobbs era: thwarting distribution of the abortion pill. That's because these life-destroying drugs now constitute nearly two-thirds of U.S. abortions — and because they can be distributed by mail even in states like Texas that passed near-total bans on abortion in the wake of Dobbs. Two years on, however, it's clear that the pro-life movement is continuing to lose ground due to the ever-expanding availability of the abortion pill.

In a stunning win for Life, Costco Wholesale has announced that it will not be selling the Chemical Abortion Pill, mifepristone, at any of its more than 500 pharmacy locations across the United States. The decision comes amid ongoing national discussion about the dangers of the retail availability of Chemical Abortion Pills—drugs that are deadly to the preborn and extremely harmful to mothers. Students for Life America (SFLA) and Students for Life Action (SFLAction), along with a coalition of faith-based activist groups, had urged Costco to stop selling mifepristone at its pharmacies.

A Texas father is suing an out-of-state abortionist for contributing to the death of his preborn children. The federal class action suit, filed on behalf of "all current and future fathers of unborn children in the United States," could stop abortionists from mailing mifepristone, the chemical abortion drug, into pro-life states. Jerry Rodriguez alleges Remy Coeytaux, a California abortionist, illegally shipped chemical abortion pills into Texas, which caused the death of his two children. Read more...

It is interesting that those who hide behind so-called “shield laws” should be the least bit surprised when pro-life states respond vigorously to pro-abortion states that are shipping mifepristone—the abortion pill—into their jurisdictions against their laws. Texas and Louisiana have been particularly aggressive in fighting New York physician Margaret Carpenter who not only is sending abortion pills into their states but is also not licensed to practice medicine in either state. Sixteen state attorneys general have urged Congress to consider federal legislation that would preempt state-level shield laws designed to block enforcement of pro-life laws.

CI-128 codified and added additional protection for abortion and healthcare providers in Montana after voters overwhelmingly passed it. Previously the Montana constitution allowed for a right to privacy and protected the right to an abortion. This initiative codified that protection. Now the Montana Life Defense Fund has filed legal challenge to the initiative. The lawsuit contends that the full text of CI-128 was not included on the November 2024 ballot, in violation of Article XIV, Section 9(3) of the Montana Constitution. Based on long-standing Montana Supreme Court precedent, failure to strictly adhere to the requirements of Article XIV, Section 9 of the Montana Constitution is fatal to any proposed constitutional amendment.
