California Attorney General Rob Bonta Sept. 21 announced a lawsuit against two organizations over their alleged “fraudulent and misleading” advertisement of a procedure called abortion pill reversal (APR).

The lawsuit claims Heartbeat International, a nationwide pro-life organization, and RealOptions Obria, a group of five crisis pregnancy centers in Northern California, promoted this procedure as a reliable means to reverse a medical abortion and sustain the pregnancy. According to the attorney general’s office, APR was advertised as safe and effective despite a lack of scientific evidence.
