Anti-abortion leaders and groups are cosplaying as environmentalists as part of their latest effort to ban mifepristone. Their use of tech known for its negative environmental impacts stands in direct contradiction their alleged environmental concerns. 1/11 reproaction.org/bogus-aborti...

reproaction.orgYikes, An Anti-Abortion AI Chatbot Wants to Talk To “Abortion Minded Women”Choose Life Marketing, a company that creates resources for anti-abortion organizations and pregnancy centers, has launched their own AI Chatbot called Olive.

These and other anti-abortion uses of AI, such as the anti-abortion pregnancy center AI chatbot Olive, make it clear that anti-abortion groups are only concerned with banning mifepristone and stopping abortion — not the environment. 10/11 reproaction.org/anti-abortio...

salon.comAI’s abortion misinformation problemReproductive rights advocates are pushing back as AI chatbots misdirect abortion seekers.

In addition to the environmental concerns, studies have shown that AI chatbots are spreading misinformation about abortion and directing users to anti-abortion resources. 9/11 www.salon.com/2026/08/19/a...

The Environmental and Energy Study Institute echoes these concerns, noting that larger data centers can use 5 million gallons of water daily — as much as a town of 10,000 – 50,000 people. 6/11 www.eesi.org/articles/vie...

Despite the environmental threats posed by AI, the same anti-abortion actors now masquerading as environmentalists make frequent use of AI — including Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins. 7/11

While these anti-abortion actors are attempting to frame themselves as protectors of the environment, many of them continue to use a technology that poses actual threats to the environment: artificial intelligence, or AI. 4/11

Around 2020, the anti-abortion claim that mifepristone — the first of two pills in one kind of medication abortion regimen — is allegedly contaminating the water supply began gaining traction. 2/11

This claim is the latest anti-abortion attempt to ban safe, effective medication abortion. Abortion opponents are churning out all kinds of propaganda in an attempt to support their demands to ban medication abortion. 3/11 www.politico.com/news/2026/07...

thecut.comNo, You’re Not Drinking Abortion-Pill-Contaminated WaterTrump’s EPA is looking for traces of mifepristone and misoprostol in our drinking water — the reasons why are unfounded.

Both the FDA and EPA are conducting “reviews” that contradict 25+ years of FDA approval and thousands of peer-reviewed scientific studies showing that mifepristone is safe, effective, and is “without any expected adverse environmental effects.” www.thecut.com/article/epa-... 3/4

They may have changed the timing, but we know their end game remains - to ban access to abortion and criminalize people who receive or provide abortion care. WE are watching and holding anyone who advocates for abortion restrictions to account. 4/4

The FDA isn’t the only agency coming for abortion. At the direction of anti-abortion operatives, the EPA is “studying” whether mifepristone causes water contamination. Spoiler alert: it does not. 2/4 reproaction.org/bogus-aborti...

reproaction.orgAnti-Abortion Movement’s Sudden Obsession with the EnvironmentStudents for Life’s and anti-abortion movement's misinformation campaign is an appeal to the growing Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) tent.

Natural. Pure. Clean. These terms and concepts surface again and again in MAHA and anti-abortion spheres. But now, in 2026, the anti-abortion movement and MAHA’s hyper fixation on purity isn’t limited to disinformation about abortion-tainted water.

Abortion is a decision, not a debate.

Our bodies, our power, our future. We believe in a future where we are all treated with dignity and respect – that includes the freedom to get abortion care.

washingtonsun.comWhite House Officials Told the DOJ to Delay Action on Abortion Ahead of the MidtermsAttorney General Todd Blanche has moved slowly in abortion pill litigation and department officials have told advocates to wait until after the election.

Trump appears to realize banning abortion is politically toxic, including within his base—what he doesn’t appear to realize is that none of this changes after the midterms. Nothing this administration does should surprise anyone anymore; they’re simply saying the quiet part out loud now.

The Washington Sun@washingtonsun.com

The White House has instructed the Justice Department to move slowly on any abortion-related actions ahead of the midterm elections, The Washington Sun has learned.

Decisions about our own bodies aren’t up for debate. Period.

This report is directly tied to the anti-abortion push to ban mifepristone and decimate access to medication abortion. We deserve access to this safe, effective medication — not bogus investigations based on anti-abortion BS. 10/10

A closer look at the sources of the HELP Committee’s claims and the members behind the report makes clear that anti-abortion propaganda likely inspired this sham investigation into mifepristone manufacturers. 5/10

The report cites an anti-abortion video from the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs (AAPLOG) about the alleged recklessness of online abortion pill providers, claiming the video illustrates the alleged inability of mifepristone manufacturers to adequately enforce REMS. 6/10

These committee members — all of whom were previously endorsed by anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America — claimed that mifepristone manufacturers were violating federal law by not adequately enforcing the FDA’s Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies, or REMS, on mifepristone. 3/10
