Louisiana has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Food & Drug Administration over allowing abortion pills to be mailed into the state from other states.Filed Monday in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, the complaint seeks to reinstate an earlier policy requiring the abortion drugs to be dispensed in person.
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, a conservative Christian activist and former Louisiana state lawmaker, expressed his support for the lawsuit in a statement on Wednesday.
“I applaud my home state of Louisiana for filing this lawsuit to reinstate commonsense safety requirements that the Biden administration so callously and dangerously removed,” stated Perkins. “The Trump administration should repeal approval of mifepristone altogether, but it should also swiftly adopt a policy that aligns with its declaration that abortion belongs under state jurisdiction.”Perkins called the abortion drug Mifepristone a “murder weapon” and “unsafe for women,” as well as “a tool used by killers” often “against a woman's will or without her knowledge.”
