Students for Life of America, a leading pro-life advocacy group, released a letter announcing its intent to sue the U.S. Food and Drug Administration over alleged Endangered Species Act violations tied to pharmaceutical waste from the chemical abortion pill mifepristone. In July, the group announced a peer-reviewed study that found significant levels of mifepristone in all but 1 of 9 sampling classes of water collected in three U.S. cities, including some tap water.

Midterm elections will take place in November. In addition to electing state and federal representatives and senators, abortion-related initiatives will be on the ballot in four states. These states are Idaho, Missouri, Nevada, and Virginia. These ballot initiatives will decide if preborn children are protected from abortion, or if they can legally be killed. The decision voters make in November will decide the fates of countless preborn children in four states, for years to come. Read more......
