On April 21, 2023, Representative Sharice Davids released the following statement after the U.S. Supreme Court announced its decision in Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Mifepristone, which was originally approved for use more than 20 years ago, is a safe and effective medication used in over half of all abortions in the United States.

“I am glad that the Supreme Court recognized the total lack of science and legal standing in the case brought before them and ruled that the FDA’s approval of mifepristone will stand—as it has for decades—and access to this vital and safe medication will continue.

“Though this is a victory for Kansans’ freedoms, reproductive rights are still under attack nationwide. It’s a reminder that we are facing extremist actors who will not stop attempting to insert themselves into our most private health care decisions—but while they try to strip us of our rights, together, we’ll continue fighting to protect them.”
