Kansas City Star: AG Kris Kobach Leads Fight Against Abortion Pill

New tech is under debate . . . Just a bit of advice before anyone gets their hopes up.

TECHNOLOGY ALWAYS WINS.

Sorry, but that's story story of human existence so far. 

What's scary and what a lot of people don't see . . . Abortion is helping to drop American birth rates and more importantly . . . When women with incomes above the poverty line have access to birth control and/or abortion . . . They typically use it . . . And for better & worse . . . That usually means fewer newborns.

Suspension of mifepristone approval wouldn't be the end of medication abortion

Even if U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk's decision to suspend the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of mifepristone goes through, there still will be a nonsurgical option for people to manage abortions at home.In the United States, the so-called abortion pill is actually two medications, mifepristone, sold under the brand names Mifeprex or Korlym, or known as RU-486, and misoprostol, which is taken about 24 to 48 hours later.The federal judge's ruling in Texas last week applies only to mifepristone.
