The attorneys general of Idaho, Kansas, and Missouri argue that expanded access to abortion pills results in a loss of potential population growth, a claim that reframes abortion as a sovereign injury.
The complaint asserts that the F.D.A.'s repeal of the in-person dispensing requirement for mifepristone has led to 'immeasurable pain and suffering,' despite the fact that complications from the two-pill regimen are rare.
This lawsuit seeks to challenge the F.D.A.'s liberalized rules for medication abortion, which have enabled many women to terminate pregnancies safely at home after receiving the pills through the mail.
The states' complaint includes provocative photographs that seemingly aim to evoke emotional responses rather than substantiate their claims about the effects of medication abortion.
