Abortion pill approval sparks national political clash
The FDA approval of RU-486 or Mifeprex triggers praise from Planned Parenthood and reproductive rights groups while drawing strong opposition from the National Right to Life Committee. Political leaders from both parties weigh in as candidates frame the issue amid debate over safety, legality, and access. The drug, first approved in France in 1988, has been used by 620,000 European women and expands options for American women seeking uterine abortion.
