SBA Pro-Life America State Policy Director Katie Daniel offered similar analysis, describing Thursday as "a sad day for all who value women's health and unborn children's lives" while asserting that "the fight to stop dangerous mail-order abortion drugs is not over."

She thanked the attorneys general of Idaho, Kansas and Missouri for "fighting to hold government bureaucrats accountable for betraying women and children" by challenging the abortion pill at the state level.
