New York Attorney General Letitia James is using the power of her office to censor anti-abortion pregnancy centers because they tell women about the option of using progesterone for abortion pill reversal, according to a lawsuit filed against her Tuesday.
“Despite saying that she supports women’s choice, the Attorney General seeks to deprive women who change their mind and want to continue their pregnancies, or who are coerced or tricked into a chemical abortion, of truthful information about progesterone treatment, a safe option that has been used by obstetrician-gynecologists to help maintain pregnancies for decades,” stated the lawsuit, filed by Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) on behalf of the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates, Gianna’s House, and Options Care Center.
James, a Democrat, sued Heartbeat International and its 11 affiliated faith-based anti-abortion pregnancy centers in the state this month, alleging they are spreading “false and misleading” information about the progesterone treatment.
