Washington buys 3-year supply of abortion pills before court decides its legality
FOX NewsAPR 20 2023
Outgoing Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee declared in an interview with Reuters that the Washington State would keep its stockpile of abortion pills in case of Republican presidential nominee, former Pres. Donald Trump, wins the election.
According to the New York Times, Inslee and at least four other Democratic governors have secured supplies of mifepristone to preserve access for women through a potential second Trump administration.
This comes as some Democrats fear that once back in the White House, Trump would either rescind the Food and Drugs Administration's regulatory approval of mifepristone or criminalize interstate distribution.
