SFLAction Calls for Action on “Abortion-Inducing Drugs Act” to Stop Chemical Abortion Pill Vendors from Mailing Death into Oklahoma Homes
“A new abortion cartel operates illegally, in and out of the state and even internationally, mailing Chemical Abortion Pills in Oklahoma. Abusers just love it, as anonymously purchased deadly drugs can be slipped to mothers without their knowledge or consent,” noted Students for Life’s Kristan Hawkins. “We are defending innocent preborn babies and their mothers in the new frontier of pro-life leadership, standing against a criminal enterprise designed to profit as people die. Oklahoma legislators have a chance at life-saving innovation with our bill.”
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK. (02-02-2026) – Students for Life Action (SFLAction) students and volunteers will canvas at the Oklahoma capitol on February 10 in support of SFLAction’s “Abortion-Inducing Drugs Act” (SB1657), introduced by Sen. Julie Daniels (R), as part of SFLAction’s push to address the nation’s most common method of abortion today. If signed into law, the “Abortion-Inducing Drugs Act” would enforce the laws that are already on the books that prohibit prescribing illegal Chemical Abortion Pills in Oklahoma, including by out-of-state Chemical Abortion vendors, who mail the deadly pills across state lines. “State leaders like those in Oklahoma are forced to action, as illegal Chemical Abortion Pills fly through the mail. SFLAction is calling on the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice to enforce the Comstock Act and go after these traffickers, and we are also standing with Oklahoma leaders who are trying to uphold the law and save lives.”
Chemical Abortion Pills are used to commit more than 60% of abortions killing hundreds of thousands of children and seriously injuring up 1 in 8 mothers who use them. Chemical Abortion Pill vendors openly admit to targeting pro-life states like Oklahoma. Oklahoma law limits all abortion except in cases of life-threatening medical emergencies.
Legislation like the “Anti-Chemical Abortion Pill Trafficking Act” is important to the Youth Vote, which makes up nearly half of the voter bloc, according to a January 2026 Students for Life’s Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement poll released and conducted by Survey USA. More than 9 in 10 supported a federal review of Chemical Abortion Pills and reinstatement of health and safety standards that have been stripped away from Chemical Abortion Pills, leaving women at risk for injury, infertility, death, and abuse at the hands of those who use the deadly pills against women without their consent. Half of youth voters supported in-person dispensing requirements for Chemical Abortion Pills to protect women from abuse, with only 27% opposing such requirements.
Here is what the “Abortion-Inducing Drugs Act” will do in Oklahoma:
- Prohibit mailing, shipping, or prescribing abortifacients, including from out-of-state sources.
- Impose civil liability fines of at least $10,000, with no cap amount, on abortion vendors committing or attempting to commit an abortion using an abortifacient on a mother.
- Reinforce state sovereignty over medical regulation.
- Provide remedies including injunctive relief of $10,000 in damages per violation and recovery of court costs and attorney’s fees. Exclude convicted abusers, traffickers, and rapists from bringing such civil actions.
- Allow civil actions to be filed up to three years after the cause of action or one year after any legal stay is lifted.
SFLAction is encouraging pro-life students and volunteers to join the fight by participating in one of our State Lobby Days. SFLAction is also in full support of Rep. Denise Crosswhite Hader (R) and Sen. David Bullard’s (R) “Anti-Chemical Abortion Pill Trafficking Act” (HB1168), which adds criminal penalties to those who send illegal Chemical Abortion Pills into Oklahoma. SFLAction hopes to see both of these pieces of legislation receive votes to pass out of the Senate.
SFLAction’s push to get the “Abortion-Inducing Drugs Act” introduced and passed is part of our larger Make America Pro-Life Again Roadmap. Launched last November, this legislative package built upon the Gonzales v. Carhart case will help take down abortion at the state and federal level.
