Pregnancy is not a life-threatening illness, and the abortion pill does not cure or prevent any disease. Make no mistake, Mifeprex is a dangerous pill. That’s why 20 of my Republican colleagues and I are urging

Imagine you’re 20 wks pregnant when your fetus is diagnosed with a lethal condition. But no one tells you that—at least, not explicitly.
Your doctor is mandated by law to tell you the condition is “potentially life-limiting,” and that your non-viable pregnancy is “pre-viable.”
