    Human Coalition Files Amicus Brief at Supreme Court in Opposition to FDA’s Approval of Abortion Pill Brief tells stories of clients who suffered trauma from abortion pills
    DALLAS, TEXAS, April 18, 2023 - Human Coalition on Tuesday filed a friend-of-the-court brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in opposition to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of the deadly abortion pill regimen. In the case of Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Human Coalition supports national medical organizations and doctors in their legal challenge to the FDA’s expedited and illegal approval of the drug mifepristone for chemical abortions.

    Human Coalition’s brief details the trauma and confusion of clients who felt misled and uninformed about mifepristone and its side effects. U.S. district court Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk relied heavily on Human Coalition’s brief in his April 7 ruling that suspended the FDA’s approval of the abortion pill regimen.

    Chelsey Youman, National Director of Public Policy for Human Coalition, on Tuesday stated:

    “We are resolved to speak for the millions of victims of abortion pills who cannot speak for themselves, before the highest court in the land. More than five million precious children have been killed by mifepristone since it was recklessly and illegally approved 23 years ago. This genocide must stop now.

    “We are here to speak for women who were medically damaged from taking the abortion drugs, regret taking them, who were pressured into taking abortion pills, and who were misled or misinformed about the trauma they experienced. So many of these women have been gaslit by the abortion industry which promotes these deadly drugs as women’s empowerment.

    “The vast majority – 76% – of our clients considering abortion would prefer to parent if their circumstances were different. We will continue to walk alongside every vulnerable woman who feels abortion is her only option, and accompany her to a place of stability where she discovers she can become the parent she always wanted to be.”

    Human Coalition’s brief details the significant physical harm that chemical abortion has caused and will continue to cause women; the ways they are deceived about the drug’s risks; the risks of abusers using mifepristone as a covert tool for coerced abortions; and the psychological harm that abortion causes women.

    The brief notes that the FDA recorded 28 deaths caused by mifepristone since its approval. Deaths can be caused by complications arising from the pill, such as hemorrhaging or sepsis from fetal tissue left inside the mother or a ruptured ectopic (tubal) pregnancy.

    To shed light on the FDA’s utter failure to maintain basic safety protocols for women, the brief highlights its incomplete reporting requirements and data. Even though the FDA does not require adverse events be reported, its numbers indicate women underwent 1,048 hospitalizations, 604 blood transfusions, and 414 infections (including 71 severe infections) following use of the pill, with a total of 4,213 adverse events as of June 2022. A study from Finland found that adverse events in women who had a chemical abortion were nearly four times higher (20% vs. 5.6%) than in women who had a surgical abortion.

    The brief shows that beyond the physical harm, women experience severe psychological damage from the abortion pill regimen. Research by AAPLOG revealed that “women face an 81% increase in the risk of mental health disorders after receiving an abortion. These women also face a 34% increased risk of anxiety, 37% increased risk of depression, and 155% increased risk of suicidal behavior.”

    In the FDA’s damaging effort to make abortion more accessible, it eliminated the abortion pill’s in-person dispensing requirement. This means women and girls will not be examined for significant contraindications and can complete their abortions without any physician oversight, compounding its health risks to women. Decades of medication abortion marred women into living victims of abortion.

    About Human Coalition
    Human Coalition is one of the largest pro-life, pro-woman, and pro-family organizations in the country, committed to making abortion unthinkable and unnecessary. Founded in 2009, Human Coalition has grown from a simple internet outreach idea into a comprehensive care network that reaches women facing unexpected pregnancies, rescues innocent preborn children from abortion, and restores families to stability.

  • Jay Glazer of FOX NFL Sunday and author of Unbreakable
    ABOUT JAY GLAZER AND UNBREAKABLE

    "Hey Teammate, we all face obstacles-physical, emotional, between the ears. The good news is that everything we have fought back against can empower us, IF WE KNOW HOW TO USE IT. My obstacles happen to be anxiety and depression. I call it living in the gray, and I've been mired in it my whole life. To be honest, it sucks. But I have also recently recognized that this same gray that has held me down has also empowered me to make my wildest dreams come true. You have probably overcome many of your own obstacles, but you've been too close to the conflict to clearly see what you've accomplished. We are all UNBREAKABLE, no matter what we do, who we are, or what traumas we may have experienced. We just need to admit that we can't walk this walk alone." --Jay Glazer

    After years of rejection but with constant hustle, Jay Glazer has built a career has one of the most iconic sports insiders, earning himself a spot on the Emmy award-winning Fox NFL Sunday, a role as the confidant of coaches and players across the league, and a role as himself alongside Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on HBO series Ballers. His gym, Unbreakable Performance Center, attracts some of the biggest names in Hollywood, and is the headquarters to the powerful charity MVP (Merging Vets and Players) that Jay founded in 2015. MVP began as a weekly physical and mental health huddle with combat veterans and retired athletes has expanded to seven locations, helping soldiers and players transition to a new team.

    In Unbreakable, Jay Glazer talks directly to you, his teammates, and shares his truth. All of his success from his screeching-and-swerving joy ride through professional football, the media, the fighting world, Hollywood, the military-warrior community, comes with a side of relentless depression and anxiety. Living in the gray, as Jay calls it, is just a constant for him. And, in order to work through the gray and succeed, Jay has to maintain an Unbreakable Mindset. With this book, you can:

    · Be of Service-help others and help yourself in the process
    · Build Your Team-give support, get support
    · Never Underestimate the Power of Laughter-never take yourself too seriously· Be Proud of Your Scars-our trauma makes us who we are

    Throughout Unbreakable, Jay will use his stories-featuring some of the biggest, baddest, and most fascinating characters in the public eye today-to show how he walks this walk, has learned that while the gray is very real, it doesn't have to define him. And it doesn't have to define you either.

    Jay takes readers on a behind-the-scenes journey, sharing never-before-heard stories about his own mental health that feature some of the most fascinating characters in the public eye today. The book offers honest, outspoken advice and insights gleaned from Jay's own fight against the dark forces of depression and anxiety, his decades-long journey to the top of sports-journalism and his traumatic survival of a near-death experience. From an unlikely friendship with Michael Strahan that opened the door to his big break inside the NFL sports reporting, to helping veterans fight for their lives in the gym and even playing himself on the hit HBO show Ballers, Jay has seen it all. His experiences acting as coach to musicians like Wiz Khalifa and Demi Lovato to award-winning athletes and some of the most powerful people in business have given him the ability to laugh at himself while keeping up the fight against his own mental health struggles.

    JAY GLAZER BIO

    Jay Glazer is a TV personality and National Football League (NFL) insider for FOX Sports' award-winning NFL pregame studio show, FOX NFL Sunday. The entire cast, including Glazer, became the first sports show inducted into the Television Hall Of Fame in 2019. He was one of the first ever minute by minute breaking online news reporters in the NFL, first for CBSSportsline.com in 1999, followed by FoxSports.com.

    In 2007, Glazer created the first mixed martial arts training program for pro athletes in America and has trained over 1,000 pro athletes. In 2014, he co-founded the Unbreakable Performance Center, a private training facility frequented by Wiz Khalifa, Chris Pratt, and Demi Lovato, as well as numerous NFL, NHL and MMA athletes. Glazer starred as himself in all five seasons of HBO's Ballers. In 2015, Glazer and former U.S. Army Green Beret Nate Boyer founded the charitable organization MVP (Merging Vets and Players) to assist combat veterans and former professional athletes, who often faced a tough road adjusting to civilian life.
