OPINION:
With 15 state attorneys general calling on the Environmental Protection Agency to investigate the potential contaminants from mifepristone (the abortion pill) in the nation’s drinking water supply, one has to wonder: Why has this taken so long?
When Roe v. Wade was overturned, not many people would have believed that abortion numbers would stagnate or increase, but this is what has seemingly happened due to mail-order abortions started under the Biden administration. It’s been allowed to continue in the Trump administration (And President Trump says he is pro-life. But I digress).
So, not only are abortion pills deadly to unborn babies and harmful to their mothers, but now society as a whole may very well be at risk from this awful pill that could be lurking in our drinking water, causing infertility and miscarriages in pregnant women.
Why has the EPA not been on this from the beginning? Why has it taken state attorneys general to put the heat on the agency instead of the Trump administration that, to date, has not concluded the investigation to determine whether the abortion pill is dangerous to women?
With every passing moment, unborn babies die due to mifepristone. Mothers are injured. Americans become infertile and pregnant women miscarry.
All this under the greatest pro-life president? Exactly what does it take to get the abortion pill out of our nation?
