Republican attorneys general urge EPA to classify mifepristone as water contaminant

Fourteen Republican state attorneys general and 19 GOP members of Congress are urging the EPA to classify the abortion medication mifepristone as a water contaminant, citing a 1996 FDA statement. Environmental experts and the Center for Biological Diversity state there is no evidence mifepristone harms water systems or humans, while state lawmakers in seven states introduced bills addressing medication abortion's environmental impact.
