Rep. Mark Harris: “The FDA’s deadly betrayal of pro-life America”

WASHINGTON, DC — On Monday, Congressman Mark Harris (NC-08) penned an op-ed in BlazeMedia responding to the Food and Drug Administration’s recent controversial approval of the generic Mifepristone drug.

Some key quotes are below:

• “The FDA’s reversal isn’t a matter of procedure — it’s a moral failure dressed up as administrative routine.”
  
   
• “...the FDA has wide discretion to delay or deny authorization for drugs that raise ethical or safety concerns. Choosing not to use that authority isn’t neutrality. It’s cowardice. It’s the decision to shrug and look away while a drug designed to end life gains wider reach.”
  
   
• “Mifepristone’s purpose could not be clearer: It ends human life. Authorizing a generic version without exhaustive review prioritizes ideology over science and convenience over conscience.”
  
   
• “That delay reveals the real problem: a deep-state bureaucracy operating with impunity, detached from the leadership and values of the nation it serves. When bureaucrats make decisions that contradict both policy and conscience, accountability becomes nonnegotiable.”
  
   
• “A drug designed to end life has no place in a nation that claims to defend the vulnerable.”
