A coalition of pro-life pregnancy help organizations this week sued New York Attorney General Letitia James, a Democrat, in state court over her efforts to prevent them from promoting abortion pill reversal procedures.

The state claims the groups, that help pregnant women, misinform the public about the abortion pill reversal protocol used when women who have begun the medication abortion process change their minds. The groups say the protocol has been proven safe and one of their lawyers described the crackdown on their free speech as a “political witch-hunt.” The state counters that the protocol is not universally accepted and has not been approved by federal regulators.
