At a Senate hearing, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. received praise from abortion opponents after committing to align with Trump's position on regulating mifepristone, the abortion pill. This comes amid increased pressure on the FDA from conservatives to tighten restrictions or ban the pill. Kennedy, if confirmed, would have significant influence over how the FDA manages abortion medication. His willingness to embrace anti-abortion sentiment raised concerns among Democrats about potential abuses of power in public health.
"Today, we received clear signals that the prolife movement can work with RFK Junior. Acknowledging that every abortion is a tragedy left my team applauding."
"President Trump has asked me to study the safety of mifepristone. He has not yet taken a stand on how to regulate it. Whatever he does, I will implement those policies."
