“It’s painfully ironic that the Democratic Party, which pretends to champion all things environmental-friendly, would ignore the abortion water pollution caused by flushing chemically tainted blood, placenta tissue, and human remains into our nation’s water supply. That’s what the Biden-Harris Administration set up during COVID,” said Students for Life Action’s Kristan Hawkins. “The abortion lobby says there is nothing to see here, but the Pro-Life Generation asks Texas Legislators, don’t trust and please verify what’s in your water.”

Students for Life Action (SFLAction) Calls for Support of TX Senate Bill 1976.

AUSTIN, TX (04-14-2025) — Students for Life Action (SFLAction) President Kristan Hawkins said that the Pro-Life Generation supports an innovative measure to require Texas Wastewater Treatment Facilities to test for abortion water pollution quarterly, to track the impact of Chemical Abortion Pill pollution in the state’s drinking water. The measure, Texas Senate Bill 1976, is set for a Monday hearing before the Texas Senate Water, Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee, where it’s championed by Texas State Sen. Bryan Hughes. Hawkins reflected that “the very least that can be done is tracking Abortion Water Pollution, to understand the risks we all face.”

She continued: “Other than abortion vendors – legal and illegal – can you name any other business in America being allowed to dump human remains and chemically tainted blood and tissue into our water without consequence? SFLAction right now is working to ask the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to require tracking of the active metabolites from Chemical Abortion Pills, which we know are present from reports in other nations. Students for Life is involved in water testing, though that should be handle by our government. Texas is on the right track in getting basic information, but what is truly needed in the state and nationwide is to stop the dumping. SFLAction’s Clean Water for All Life Act demands that bodies of those aborted along with the chemically tainted pathological medical waste be handled carefully, with Red Bag Medical Waste Disposal. But without that, we are drinking other people’s abortions.”  

ALSO IN TEXAS: SFLAction supports Texas House Bill 3734 that addresses similar tracking concerns, as well as Texas House Bill 5510 with the companion Texas Senate Bill 2880. Those bills address Chemical Abortion Pill Trafficking and create civil penalties for those caught pushing the deadly drugs to end precious, preborn life.  

In her letter to the EPA in 2024, Hawkins asked the environmental watch dog to expand its tracking of “forever chemicals” to include those active in the first of the two drugs used in Chemical Abortion Pills. Those concerns were echoed by then Sen. Marco Rubio and Rep. Josh Brecheen, in a bicameral letter to the EPA.

Hawkins noted: “The No Test, Online Distribution of Chemical Abortion Pills established by the Biden Administration’s FDA exposes women to injury, infertility, and even death. Now, abusers and sex traffickers can easily get the drugs to use against women without their knowledge and consent. But the recklessness of Biden’s administration also has implications for America’s water safety too, as today, chemically tainted blood, placenta tissue, and human remains are flushed away by a means of abortion that now used to commit more than half of all such deaths.” 

In state legislatures nationwide, SFLAction has worked on Chemical Abortion Pill legislation.

Exposing environmental concerns resulting from Chemical Abortion Pills is a battle that SFLAction and our sister organization, Students for Life of America (SFLA), have been fighting for quite some time:  

  • SFLAction submitted a letter to Congress, alongside more than forty other pro-life leaders, to demand the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) conduct regular and comprehensive environmental testing of PFAs just like any other “forever chemical.”  
  • SFLAction submitted a legal analysis to the EPA with detailed reasons to track Chemical Abortion Pills.  
  • SFLAction filed an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court for the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) v. Alliance for HippocraticMedicine.  
  • In multiple states, SFLActionhas laws that would protect the environment from pollutants in Chemical Abortion Pills.  
  • Additionally, we submitted five petitions to the FDA demanding they:  
    • Add Red Bag Medical Waste requirements to reduce Chemical Abortion Pill pollution.  
    • Restore high health and safety standards (known as REMS– Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies) to protect women’s lives.  
    • Ensure that Endangered Species are protected from endocrine disrupters.  
    • Comply with the Clean Water Act by requiring protection for water, especially recreational water.  
    • And halt the relabeling of Chemical Abortion Pills.  

Gen Z and Gen Y registered voters strongly support this type of legislation, as reported in SFLA and the Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement YouGov/SurveyUSA poll released in January, where we note that by margins of 9 in 10 or more, they embrace environmental protections and health & safety standards for the deadly pills.  

Additionally, these drugs contain dangerous endocrine disruptors, which are making their way into America’s waterways through human remains, despite EPA warnings not to flush drugs, chemicals, and even goldfish. Hospitals dispose of placentas carefully as medical waste, and brick-and-mortar abortion vendors are supposed to follow state laws with human remains.
