Louisiana Classifies Abortion Pills as “Controlled Substances”

BATON ROUGE, LA – Last week, Louisiana became the first state to officially recognize the dangers of chemical abortion drugs by classifying them as “controlled substances.” While the abortion giant Planned Parenthood and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) routinely claim chemical abortion is “safe and effective,” evidence shows the drugs can harm women with severe complications. Thus, Governor Jeff Landry signed SB 276 into law which rightly classifies Mifepristone and Misoprostol, the two-drug regimen that starves a baby to death and then expels the baby from the womb, as “Schedule IV” drugs in the same category as some opioids, painkillers, and mood-altering depressants.
