Major pro-life group threatens to sue Trump FDA over abortion pill's alleged environmental risks

A leading pro-life organization has formally threatened to sue the Food and Drug Administration, accusing the agency of failing to conduct required environmental testing of the abortion drug mifepristone despite potential risks to the waterways and wildlife.

Students for Life of America (SFLA), an anti-abortion advocacy group, filed a notice of intent to sue the FDA on Thursday, hours before Dr. Heidi Overton is scheduled to appear before the Senate for her confirmation hearing to lead the agency.
