51 GOP Senators Urge FDA, HHS to Reevaluate Approval of New Generic Abortion Pill

Well-known
Fifty-one Republican senators sent a letter to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Marty Makary on Thursday urging them to reevaluate the FDA’s decision to approve a new generic version of the abortion pill.

Last week, the FDA approved a new generic version of mifepristone – the first drug used in a two-drug medication abortion regimen — as the agency, under the direction of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), performs a safety review of the drug following a shocking study suggesting a much higher complication rate than previously reported. In response to conservative and pro-life backlash, the HHS previously toldBreitbart News it “must approve an application if it demonstrates that the generic drug is identical to the brand-name drug.”

Senators, led by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), asked the FDA to reverse course as the safety review continues and requested the agency reinstate mifepristone safeguards rolled back by the pro-abortion Biden administration.
