Gov. Hochul: Trying to Block Abortion Drug ‘Absolutely Abhorrent,’ Pharmacies Have Become the New Battleground

EXCERPT:

HOCHUL: "This is so abhorrent at every level. Like you said, half of all abortions are provided through this drug. It is legal. It is safe. We want to make sure women so have access to this. This often can be a way that women could save their lives. This is what we’re talking about here. So, we will make sure we pursue every remedy available to us to make sure that women in the state of New York, at least, are protected. But it is heartbreaking to see this is the fallout of a decision that never should have happened last June where a right my mother’s generation fought for, I fought for, that my daughter enjoys right now, will not be there for my baby granddaughter. So, this is the stakes we are talking about here and Attorney General James and I have stood up and said our voices need to be heard and not overshadowed by attorneys general and anti-choice extremists who have really been dominating the debate. We are in this fight for the long haul."
