"Back in September 2024, our organization came out with a new report that exposed what we called the abortion pill drug cartel," says Katie Brown of American Life League. "It's these different groups of people, some working in Mexico, some working in other countries, but basically they're working for the common goal of sending abortion pills to women in states where there are abortion restrictions put in place."
Brown says the abortion pill drug cartel is doing this over the Internet without any kind of medical exam and no request for medical records.
"They just basically ask women to send in a secure email an estimated date of their last period and they will send these abortion pills to them without any kind of authorization or any kind of even attempts to mimic any kind of medical practice," says Brown.
Brown’s group was spurred when Trump called out Mexican drug cartels in a previous executive order.
"So, when the president signed an executive order classifying drug cartels as terrorist organizations, we
wrote him an open letter that mailed last week asking him to add these abortion pill drug cartels to that list under the premise that they are one, working illegally operating out of foreign countries but two, they're attacking women and children in this country."
American Life League invites other people to make a similar request and is making it easy for them to do just that.
"We made this letter available on our website, so if people want to just copy the same letter and add their name to it and send it to the White House, we really invite people to do that," says Brown. "It is not one of those things where we really want to hold it close and keep it under our name. The cause is much more important than name recognition here."
