The letter outlines how a federal policy—carried over from the Biden administration—continues to allow abortion drugs to be dispensed without an in-person consultation with a doctor or medical professional, placing the health and safety of women at serious risk. It also notes that these drugs are being distributed by mail in violation of the Comstock Act, even into states that have enacted pro-life laws following the historic Dobbs decision. Despite these state laws, the continuation of this federal policy under the Trump administration is effectively nullifying the pro-life laws of these states.

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins led the letter signed by forty leaders from the Southern Baptist Convention, the largest Protestant denomination in the United States. Signatories include: Dr. Rick Lance (Alabama), Dr. Craig Carlisle (Alabama), Greg Davis (Alabama), Randy Covington (Alaska), Bruce Rowell (Alaska), Dr. Fred MacDonald (Dakotas), Dr. Stephen N. Rummage (Florida), W. Thomas Hammond, Jr. (Georgia), Mike Griffin (Georgia), Tim Lubinus (Iowa), Eric Trout (Iowa), Grady Adkins (Iowa), Todd Stiles (Iowa), Todd Gray (Kentucky), Jim Donnell (Kentucky), Brad Walker (Kentucky), Jeff Perry (Kentucky), Chris Downing (Kentucky), Lawrence Smith (Kentucky), Dr. Steve Horn (Louisiana), Dr. David Goza (Louisiana), Dr. Matt Endris (Louisiana), Craig James (Louisiana), Dr. Will Hall (Louisiana), Shawn Parker (Mississippi), Kenny Digby (Mississippi), Dr. Wesley Vance (Missouri), Dr. Timothy Faber (Missouri), Barrett Duke, Ph.D. (Montana), Dr. Randall Jackson, (Montana), Todd Unzicker (North Carolina), E. Randall Adams (Washington), Dr. Barry Whitworth (Pennsylvania), Dr. Tony Wolfe (South Carolina), Bryant Simms (South Carolina), Dr. Tony Beam (South Carolina), Randy C. Davis (Tennessee), Nathan Lorick (Texas), Cindy Asmussen (Texas), and Brian Autry (Virginia).

The letter stated:

"As spiritual overseers and pro-life leaders, we are deeply grateful for your unwavering defense of the unborn during your first term—particularly your leadership in overturning Roe v. Wade, reinstating and expanding the Mexico City Policy, and now defunding Planned Parenthood, and reversing the Biden/Harris administration's abuse of the FACE Act.

"Today, we respectfully urge your immediate action to stop the mail-order distribution of the abortion drug mifepristone, which now accounts for more than 60% of all US abortions. Enabled by the previous administration's rollback of FDA safety protocols, this dangerous drug has caused serious adverse events in nearly 11% of users and poses grave risks to women—especially when dispensed without in-person screening or ultrasound evaluation.

"While the number of abortions briefly declined following the Dobbs decision, overall abortion rates have since increased, driven largely by the previous administration's lax policies on mifepristone and the expansion of mail-order access, which remain in place. Shield laws in pro-abortion states now protect providers who illegally ship mifepristone into pro-life states, in direct violation of federal law and the spirit of Dobbs. The case of abortionist Margaret Carpenter—who shipped abortion pills into Louisiana and Texas—illustrates this growing threat. Yet governors like New York's Kathy Hochul refuse extradition and enact new laws to further shield violators.

"We respectfully request that you: 1.) Restore and strengthen FDA safety protocols for mifepristone, including an ultrasound requirement; 2.) Direct the FDA to reevaluate the drug's approval; and 3.) Instruct the Department of Justice to enforce the Comstock Act, to protect states' rights to uphold pro-life laws.

"Women, unborn children, and the rule of law urgently need your leadership," concluded the letter. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
