Advancing American Freedom led an amicus brief with over 30 other amici on the FDA’S peeling back of safety protocols and the doubtful approval standards of mifepristone, an abortion drug.

“The Biden administration has prioritized abortion absolutism over safety when approving drugs and cutting out physicians supervision to make abortions more frequent in the wake of the Dobbs decision,” said J. Marc Wheat, AAF General Counsel. “The FDA’s decades-long avoidance of public review must end. The Court must not defer to the FDA’s interpretation, but should exercise independent judgement and recognize the FDA’s expansion of power that was not granted in the Constitution.”

Advancing American Freedom issued the following statement after a bipartisan effort to override President Biden’s veto of legislation to stop China from receiving electric vehicle subsidies failed.

“President Biden has no problem subsidizing CCP companies here and in China at a cost to the American people.” said AAF Executive Director Paul Teller. “We need to be clear-eyed. The CCP is an existential threat to our economy and our national security. Not one American tax dollar should be flowing to CCP companies on the left’s sacred altar of climate change.”

Advancing American Freedom led an amicus brief with over 30 other amici in Moyle v. US in which the Court will consider the legality of the Biden Administration’s interpretation of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) as a vehicle for mandatory abortion in states with pro-life laws.

“The Biden administration is treating EMTALA like a Trojan horse, finding an abortion mandate in it for the first time since President Reagan signed it into law almost four decades ago,” said J. Marc Wheat, AAF General Counsel. “The Dobbs decision was clear, and pro-life states have made it clear through legislation they will protect innocent life and will not allow the Biden administration to use absurd interpretations of EMTALA to force abortions.”
