Petition to President Barack Obama and HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius

On August 13th, the FDA approved an early abortion drug, ella, for sale in the United States.
I urge you to ask the FDA to reverse their decision of final approval for this dangerous drug in order to protect the health and safety of women in the United States.

Despite its labeling as a "contraceptive", ella can also terminate the life of an existing embryo if taken after conception. This makes ella an abortion drug, not simply a contraceptive.

Planned Parenthood and allies redefine "pregnancy" as beginning at implantation, not conception. Science shows that life—and therefore pregnancy—begins at conception.

Because ella blocks progesterone receptors needed for embryo development, taking it after conception can cause abortion. Planned Parenthood stands to profit from its sale, so they push for it to be labeled as contraception.

As President and HHS Secretary, you have a duty to protect the health of all Americans, including the pre-born. Please, oppose FDA approval of ella.
