Pro-Life Leaders Urge Trump To Fight ‘Attacks On The Unborn’ Coming From Inside His Administration
A coalition of pro-life leaders urged the Trump administration on Tuesday to take action against “attacks on the unborn and most vulnerable” they said were coming from inside the White House, according to a letter obtained by The Daily Wire.

The group, including Concerned Women for America CEO Penny Nance and Eagle Forum President Kirsten Ullman, called for the Food and Drug Administration to end Biden-era regulations that allowed the abortion pill to be shipped through the mail across the country. They said that the FDA’s current stance on the abortion pill was undermining the pro-life agenda promoted by the Trump administration.
“We do wish to express our deep concern about the actions and rhetoric coming from the current Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We write to bring to your immediate attention this critical threat to your Administration’s pro-life agenda,” the coalition wrote. “We, and the millions of pro-life Americans we represent across this great country, cannot sit idly while attacks on the unborn and most vulnerable are coming from inside the administration.”
The FDA has faced criticism from pro-life groups and lawmakers after it approved a generic form of the abortion pill in October and maintained the mail-order abortion regulations.
“Most troublingly, the agency has maintained and actively expanded access to the abortion drug mifepristone, while operating under outdated regulations that allow unrestricted telehealth and mail-order prescriptions for the drug. Despite Secretary Kennedy’s requests for review, no meaningful policy restrictions have been implemented,” the pro-life leaders wrote.
Last week, Senator Josh Hawley sent a letter to Food and Drug Administrator Marty Makary asking about reports that he was slow-walking a study on the dangers of the abortion pill.
The letter was also signed by Center for Urban Renewal and Education President Donald Eason, Faith and Freedom Coalition CEO Mary Thomas, Faith Wins CEO Chad Connelly, Patriot Voices Chair and former senator Rick Santorum, and Priests for Life National Director Frank Pavone.

They praised President Donald Trump’s past actions on abortion, thanking him for speaking at the March for Life, appointing Supreme Court Justices who overturned Roe v. Wade, and cutting federal funding for Planned Parenthood.
Their letter follows a call from Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America to fire Makary over his handling of the abortion pill review. The White House has stood by Makary, pushing back on claims that he was slow-walking the abortion pill study.
The Daily Wire reached out to the White House for comment on the letter.
