Kamala Harris Calls Pro-Life Americans “Extremists,” Says Killing Babies in Abortion is a “Fundamental Freedom”

Kamala Harris called pro-life Americans “extremists” on Friday and defended abortion as a fundamental freedom.

Harris met with leaders of the nation’s most pro-abortion organizations, including Planned Parenthood (NARAL) and NARAL. They discussed how to encourage more abortion pills to be used against babies. Harris claimed that pro-life Americans who want abortion protections for babies are “extremists” who oppose the right to health care, even though the opposite is true.

This is more than an attack on women’s fundamental rights. Harris stated that it was an attack on the foundation of our public healthcare system.

Harris overlooks the fact abortion can end the life of unborn babies, which is against their fundamental right to life as guaranteed by the Constitution.

Harris ignores the harm abortion causes women, and the burden the abortion pill she promotes is on the public health system. Emergency rooms across the country are being overcrowded by women who have taken the deadly abortion pill. The abortion pill mifepristone, which is extremely dangerous for women, has seen ER visits rise by 500%.

Ironically, Harris’ meeting with the Canadian Abortion Drugs Association comes only weeks after the news that an abortion pill had killed a Canadian woman.

Research demonstrating the serious risks associated with Mifepristone includes a longitudinal study published in November 2021. It found that the rate of abortion-related emergency rooms visits after a chemical abortion rose by more than 500% from 2002 to 2015.

Evidence is mounting that abortion drugs are not safer than Tylenol as claimed by the pro-abortion movement. Gynuity, a pro-abortion research organization, has produced evidence to support this claim.

Live Action News reviewed the study published in the journal “Contraception” and found that it refutes the popular safety claim. The Gynuity study “found an ER and urgent care visit rate of 6%” for women taking the abortion drug, which is “107 times greater than the rate for acetaminophen/Tylenol,” according to the report.

Since the Clinton administration’s approval, millions of unborn babies have been murdered by the abortion drug mifepristone (or RU-486). According to the Guttmacher Institute, almost half of all U.S. abortions are currently performed with it.

Studies also show that mifepristone’s risks are much more widespread than abortion activists claim. As many as one-third of 17 women will need hospital treatment. The Charlotte Lozier Institute recently found that abortion-related emergency rooms visits among women who have taken the drug for abortion rose by more than 500% between 2002 and 2015.

Another new study from the University of Toronto, “Short-Term Adverse Outcomes After Mifepristone-Misoprostol Versus Procedural Induced Abortion,” published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, found that one in ten women who took the abortion pill had to go to the emergency room, according to Pregnancy Help News.

Similar results were found in a 2009 study, “Immediate Symptoms After Medical Compared with Surgical Termination Of Pregnancy”, published in “Obstetrics and Gynecology”. The complication rate for abortion drugs was approximately 20%, while it was 5.6 percent for surgical. Hemorrhages, incomplete abortions were the most common complications.

The FDA has also linked mifepristone with the deaths of millions of unborn children and at least 28 deaths in women. The FDA has stopped reporting non-fatal mifepristone complications under President Barack Obama. These numbers are almost certain to be much higher.
