John, 

The Supreme Court of the United States is hearing a BIG case today regarding abortion.

The decision could dramatically reduce the distribution of abortion pills nationwide, saving preborn babies and protecting mothers.

Please pray for the justices to have wisdom and courage.
BACKGROUND
Democratic administrations over the last 24 years loosened restrictions on abortion pills through the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), putting pregnant women at risk and increasing deaths of children in the womb.

Four national medical associations, four doctors, and Alliance Defending Freedom sued the FDA for failing to follow its own protocol, allowing mifepristone to be used later in pregnancy and to be mailed to pregnant women without an in-person visit.

Pro-abortion presidents used the FDA as a political pawn at the expense of women and children.
ABOUT ABORTION PILLS
Abortion pills are the most common method by which abortions are performed in the United States. One in five women will suffer a complication due to taking an abortion pill, and one in 20 will have to visit the emergency room. Worse, every successful abortion will result in the death of an innocent baby.

Chemical abortions involve two drugs:
>> The first, mifepristone, kills the preborn child by starving him or her to death. 

>> The second, misoprostol, causes the woman to deliver the deceased baby. 


The FDA currently allows mifepristone to be used up to 10 weeks. At this point in pregnancy:
  • The preborn baby has her own unique DNA;
  • Her heart starts beating;
  • Her eyes, legs, and hands begin to develop;
  • She has detectable brain waves; and
  • Every major organ system is in place.
WHAT COULD HAPPEN?
A Pro-Life ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court in this case could reduce abortions even in liberal states by limiting the drug’s use to earlier in pregnancy and requiring an in-person visit to a physician.

The court cannot change the status quo in Pro-Life states like Texas where the Right to Life of all preborn children is legally recognized. Elective abortion is illegal in Texas, but criminal activists traffic abortion pills into our state.

Even if the Supreme Court forces the FDA to heavily regulate chemical abortions, this will not slow down the tens of thousands of abortion pills illegally being mailed into Texas right now from foreign pharmacies via illegal websites. 
We pray for victory at the Supreme Court, but we can't forget the mission to save babies from illegal abortions.

Your support of Texas Right to Life helps:
  • Minister to pregnant women on college campuses; 
  • Secure state funding for adoption agencies and pregnancy centers; and
  • Target criminal abortion groups in court.
Will you chip in to rescue preborn children?
