Flushing Our Future
I’ve shared many posts from other sources on this topic. Let’s review:
Liberty Counsel Action President John Stemberger said, “The federal government needs to properly evaluate Mifepristone’s environmental and public health implications, which have been ignored for far too long. By being named directly on Contaminant Candidate List 6, it will get the evaluation it needs and will not be overlooked by the EPA.”
In the brief, the 60 members write: “[B]y expressly authorizing mail-order chemical abortion drugs, the FDA is endangering women’s health and safety by eliminating a medically necessary in-person examination to screen for contraindications.” Moreover, they raise concerns that “a woman seeking an abortion may be facing coercion or intimate partner violence (IPV), and without an in-person evaluation, a provider’s ability to discern that is limited.”
In removing patient safeguards, the members argue that “the Biden FDA reached a predetermined and politically motivated conclusion to expand access to abortion drugs, despite lacking enough evidence to show the change would be safe. This is a clear violation of the FDA’s legal responsibilities…”
Myth #1: Women who take chemical abortion drugs do not experience serious complications.
According to the FDA’s own label, approximately 1 in 25 women visit the ER due to complications from mifepristone abortions. That means roughly 20,000 women each year visit the ER following a mifepristone abortion. That’s a lot.
The FDA has always known this drug is dangerous for women and their children, and the agency removed safety precautions anyway.
Myth #2: Mifepristone can legally and safely be distributed through the mail.
Federal law prohibits the mailing of any “article, instrument, substance, drug, medicine, or thing which is advertised or described in a manner calculated to lead another to use or apply it for producing abortion.”
So, mailing mifepristone is very clearly illegal.
According to a recent report by Liberty Counsel Action, an estimated 30-40 tons of fetal remains and abortion pill byproducts are flushed into public water systems annually, a practice that pro-life advocates describe as both ethically abhorrent and a public health concern. The report notes that wastewater treatment facilities are not designed to process such remains, raising questions about contamination and oversight.
“Nearly 700,000 times a year in the U.S., women take abortion pills, flushing the resulting remains straight down toilets and into our public water systems,” said Abigail Forman in a broadcast reported by The Vigilant Fox. “Aborted fetuses, some up to two inches long, are being flushed down toilets, clogging pipes, and traumatizing wastewater workers who find them trapped in treatment screens.”
The Respectful Treatment of Unborn Remains Act, introduced on June 25 by Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, and Sen. Jim Banks, R-Ind., aims to address this issue by prohibiting abortionists from discarding aborted babies in garbage disposals or toilets that feed into federal, state, or local water infrastructure. Violators could face fines and up to five years in prison.
“Every life is precious and has value, from the moment of conception until natural death,” Gill told The Daily Wire. “Not only does abortion rob an unborn baby of their life, but abortionists further rob them of a dignified burial by carelessly discarding their fetal remains into public water systems — a disgusting and abhorrent practice.”
“Beyond the moral outrage, introducing fetal remains into public water systems also poses a serious public health concern, potentially contaminating water sources,” Gill added.
“We want citizens to know that the abortion pill regimen is contaminating our water supply,” Nebraska Right to Life executive director Sandy Danek told the DCNF when asked about Republican Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers‘ decision to join Hanaway’s coalition. “During the chemical abortion process, usually done at home, the ‘remains’ are very likely to be disposed of in the toilet. Unlike a medical facility with medical waste protocols, the fetal remains, placenta, blood and amniotic fluid are flushed down the drain. Wastewater treatment plants and septic systems are not equipped to remove human remains, large tissue or pharmaceuticals.”
For over a year, lawmakers and others have raised concerns over the abortion pill’s potential risk of harming the general population’s fertility.
“We have become aware of a growing threat to the country’s waterways,” the letter stated. The letter alleged that the Food and Drug Administration eliminated many of the protections minimizing mifepristone’s potential public health risks over the past decade, leading to waste tainted by the pill being flushed into waterways and unintentionally ingested by the general population.
Last year, 19 members of Congress signed a letter asking the EPA to review the pill’s environmental risks. When residual amounts of progesterone blockers are flushed into waterways, prolonged exposure to them could interfere with the fertility of both women and men, the June 2025 letter alleged.
Students for Life Launches National Comment Collection Campaign to add the Active Metabolites of Chemical Abortion Pills to the Tracking Recommendations made through the Safe Water Drinking Act
“The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has the regulatory authority and humane responsibility to determine the extent of abortion water pollution, caused by the reckless and negligent policies allowed by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA). Take the word ‘abortion’ out of it, and ask, should chemically tainted blood and placenta tissue, along with human remains, be flushed by the TONS into America’s waterways?” asked Students for Life’s Kristan Hawkins. “Three Democratic Party Presidents forced the pills on the market and then deregulated them. They didn’t care that babies would die. They didn’t care if mothers were killed, injured, made infertile, or abused. And they never checked if pathological medical waste was hurting the rest of us, endangered species included. These pills kill, and we need to know more.”
We just celebrated our 250th Birthday, America. Yet, because our definition of Personhood (Life), we are quite literally flushing our descendants down the toilet, into our waterways, and poisoning even those who may want to actually have children (both women and men). We are allowing the coercion of women who do not seek abortion by their partners who are able to receive the pills through the mail, even though this is clearly illegal.
On top of this insanity for a nation that supposedly celebrates life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, we can clearly see from the ultrasounds shown in almost all the articles above that we are talking about human beings. In fact, many women who are considering an abortion will change their minds when they see their unborn child in an ultrasound.
Children are safely delivered and medically treated for certain medical conditions every day. It all depends on whether they are wanted or an inconvenience.
There is a law being considered a committee in Congress right now called the Life at Conception Act:
This bill declares that the right to life guaranteed by the Constitution is vested in each human being at all stages of life, including the moment of fertilization, cloning, or other moment at which an individual comes into being.
I recently shared the following information with the committee:
Dear Representative Burlison and Legislative Staff,
Thank you for your leadership introducing H.R. 722, the Life at Conception Act. I am writing to respectfully submit a concise set of proposed amendments for consideration during Judiciary Committee markup.
Purpose of Submission
The current draft provides a clear personhood framework.
The proposed amendments below are designed to:
- Clarify federal enforcement authority
- Align the bill with existing federal statutes governing interstate commerce
- Address practical implementation questions at the statutory level
Recommended Amendment Package (High Priority)
1. Federal Enforcement Authority
Add a provision authorizing the Attorney General to bring civil enforcement actions and explicitly invoking Congress’s authority under Section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment.
Purpose: ensures the bill is operational beyond declarative language
2. Interstate Commerce and Mailing Application
Clarify application of federal law (The Comstock Act) to interstate transport and shipment of abortion‑related materials, including use of:
- the U.S. mail
- common carriers
- interstate commerce channels
Purpose: addresses a primary enforcement gap identified in current implementation discussions
3. Medical Emergency Clarification
Add a narrowly tailored exception for treatment necessary to save the life of a pregnant woman, based on physician judgment.
Purpose: improves legal clarity and strengthens defensibility
Why These Revisions Matter
As currently drafted, H.R. 722 establishes a constitutional principle but leaves key enforcement mechanisms undefined.
These targeted additions would:
- Provide clear statutory guidance to courts and federal agencies
- Reduce ambiguity during implementation
- Strengthen the bill’s consistency with existing federal law
Importantly, these edits preserve the original structure and intent of your legislation.
Request
I respectfully request that your office:
- Review the attached amendment language
- Consider submission as a markup amendment or manager’s package
- Coordinate with Judiciary Committee staff as appropriate
Closing
Thank you again for your leadership on this issue. I appreciate your consideration and would welcome any opportunity to provide supporting detail if helpful to your team.
Please note that my research utilized M365 Copilot. I hope the language is helpful in advancing our goal to abolish abortion and establish Personhood from conception.
Please pray that both my letter and the appeal from those urging that the abortion pill (mifepristone) be exposed for the danger to our environment and fertility through our waterways will be effective in raising urgency of passing Personhood laws.
