Pro-life Republicans say FDA approval of abortion pill was illegal, ask appeals court to uphold injunction
Fox News
A group of 69 Republican members of Congress are asking the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold a Texas judge's decision halting FDA approval for the abortion pill.
"By approving and deregulating chemical abortion drugs, the FDA has not followed Congress' statutorily prescribed drug approval process and has subverted Congress' critical public policy interests in upholding patient welfare," the Republicans argue. "The FDA's lawless actions ultimately endanger women and girls seeking chemical abortions."
The brief was led by Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, R-Miss., and Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas. It comes in response to 240 congressional Democrats that asked the 5th Circuit to overturn the injunction.
