The illogic of abortion pill reversal opposition

Published October 22, 2024 9:21am ET



Abortion-related safety concerns only seem to spring up when the Democratic Party speaks about the anti-abortion option. In fact, pro-abortion figures act quite in favor of unsafe courses in the name of women’s choice — so why the opposition to an abortion pill reversal?

The only plausible answer is that the procedure works against the Democratic agenda. This election season, the party has promoted its hedonistic goals by framing them around women’s rights, rooted in women’s health. The Democratic National Convention poured money into promotional material, such as condoms and signs encouraging casual sex, that might gain the youth vote, while its public arguments revolved around anecdotes of miscarriages gone wrong.
