BREAKING: The FDA has loosened rules on access to the abortion pill mifepristone, used to end early pregnancies, allowing pharmacies to dispense the drug.

January 3, 2023, 6:35 PMMifepristone and Misoprostol, the two drugs used in a medication abortion, are seen at the Women's Reproductive Clinic in Santa Teresa, N.M.The abortion drug mifepristone is safe enough that retail pharmacies can provide the drug so long as a certified health care provider prescribes it and if that pharmacy meets certain requirements, according to new rules published Tuesday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

"Despite the FDA's expert judgment, some states have restricted access to medical abortion care, so unfortunately today's announcement will not provide equal access to all people," Masingill said. "GenBioPro looks forward to working with prescribers and pharmacies to increase access to medical abortion care for all people."

Kirsten Moore, director of the Expanding Medication Abortion Access Project, said it's not clear how quickly Americans might see an impact or how sweeping those changes might be. Pharmacies would have to raise their hand to become certified to fill prescriptions for the drug, and even then some pharmacists might refuse to dispense the pill personally because of religious objections.

Sounds dangerous

How many lives are crying, “mom, please don’t⋯i ❤️ u ”⋯

American politics at its finest. Use administrations from one branch to get around law by another.

TwitterFiles no comment still 🤔 I wouldn’t want to talk about my collusion with FBI DOJ & Twitter to Lie & suppress the truth about corruption & the false election either. U guys were a part of violating our constitutional rights. Treason=Never going to be trusted again! 😆

Political. All politcal

It's very painful.

Democrats love population control

The DEMOCRATs Great Replacement! Let Americans kill their babies while letting third world countries bring theirs in the country ILLEGALLY!

They want to make gender a main focus in schools, maybe a bigger focus should be put on sex education. Last I checked getting pregnant happens only one way. At least in the real world.

We all know what stock Mr Pelosi bought over the holidays🤡🤡

About time....

Good! None of my business, or yours, what women do with their reproductive rights.

I'm a licensed therapist Also pretty skilled and specialized at giving massage service both indoor and outdoor settings With a lovely happy ending probably you are interested?

But they all but banned the use of Ivermectin. Triggered libs in 3...2...1...

This sort of thing kills far more people than guns, and these people actually enjoy it.

About bloody time.

USCCB teach this

I believe davidalangrier has a family member named Mifepristone.
