On Tuesday, Louisiana will become the first state in the U.S. to categorize two widely used abortion pills as “controlled dangerous substances.”
Opponents argue the classification could have catastrophic impacts in a state that already has a near-total abortion ban and one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the nation. Doctors fear the reclassification will cause delays in accessing the drugs — mifepristone and misoprostol — which together can be used to manage miscarriages, while misoprostol induces labor and treats severe bleeding after delivery. They also worry the practice of reclassifying the drugs might spread beyond Louisiana.
Proponents say the new law should help prevent coerced abortion, pointing to a Texas case in which a pregnant woman was given seven misoprostol pills by her husband without her knowledge; the baby survived. Over the past 15 years, news outlets have reported on similar cases — none in Louisiana — but the issue does not appear widespread.
As a foreigner, i have hard time to understand why US go so hard on abortion pill.
Is it religions or something ban it ?
It is power, under the guise of religion.
Nothing satisfies fake Christians more than having power over everyone except themselves.

There’s not a single conservative here that gives a rats ass about what the constitution actually says, only what they believe it to say, and they can believe it says a lot of things

Yeah a ton of stuff that happens here directly violates the Constitution.
Those failed states in the south are basically undeveloped countries, and religion is the only way their leaders can claim to be actually be superior to other states, so they can’t read or write or get decent jobs, but praise the lord they’re better ‘christians’.
They used to have racism to let them know they were at least superior to black people, but we slowly took that away from them and they will never, ever forgive us.
no but the guise of religion may be there
this is just like cannabis and immigrants and now women are on the list
the more we criminalize the more citizens get put on the list such as probation
criminals have to be papered and tracked and they have less rights makes them easier to handled and they already have a task force just for that called police that help keep us all in our proper places
