Mail-Order Abortion Pills: Coercion, Complications, and State Battles


Listen Later

In this timely episode of I Am Refocused Radio, host Shamiah Reed sits down with Sue Liebel, Director of State Affairs for Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, to unpack the escalating controversies surrounding mail-order abortion pills like mifepristone. They discuss the high complication rates (including 1 in 25 women requiring emergency room care per FDA labels), the rise of coercion cases—highlighted by Rosalie Markezich's (referred to as Rosalie Marquette in discussion) traumatic experience where her boyfriend allegedly forced her to take pills mailed from a California doctor—and Louisiana's lawsuits against out-of-state providers shielded by California's laws. Liebel addresses shield laws protecting providers, the Biden-era policy changes allowing mailing, calls for the Trump administration and FDA to reinstate in-person requirements and review updated science, congressional efforts, public support for medical oversight (7 in 10 voters), the shift to 65% of abortions being chemical, and broader concerns over women's health, coercion by abusers, and interstate conflicts exemplified by Gov. Gavin Newsom's heated response. A must-listen for insights into this public health and policy flashpoint—visit sbaprolife.org and abortiondrugfacts.org for more.
