Planned Parenthood has been pushing abortion pills on women for years.
They've told the same lie over and over again.
And Florida's Attorney General just went to war against Planned Parenthood with one shocking lawsuit that has the abortion industry reeling.
Florida AG accuses Planned Parenthood of dangerous deception
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier filed a bombshell lawsuit Tuesday accusing Planned Parenthood of flat-out lying to women about abortion pills.¹
The 37-page complaint targets Planned Parenthood Federation of America and three Florida affiliates for claiming the abortion drugs mifepristone and misoprostol are "safer than Tylenol" when the evidence tells a very different story.¹
The suit claims Planned Parenthood violated Florida's Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act by distributing materials that falsely portrayed the abortion pills as safe while omitting critical information about adverse events, including hemorrhage, infection, and the need for emergency interventions.¹
"It is vile that Planned Parenthood cares more about lining their pockets than providing women with factual information about the health risks of chemical abortion drugs," Uthmeier stated.² "When it comes to health and safety in Florida, we won't tolerate blatant lies using fabricated medical 'facts' that have no scientific basis."

The lawsuit seeks up to $350 million in penalties — $10,000 for each of an estimated 35,000 chemical abortions — plus court orders halting what Uthmeier calls a "campaign to induce women to purchase abortion drugs by misrepresenting the risks."³
Planned Parenthood's own website claims medication abortion is safer than common medicines like penicillin and Viagra, stating that "serious problems are rare."⁴
But mounting evidence from real-world data tells a vastly different story than what the abortion industry wants women to believe.
The data Planned Parenthood doesn't want you to see
A comprehensive analysis by the Ethics & Public Policy Center examined over 865,000 insurance claims from women who took abortion pills and found that 10.93% — or 94,605 cases — involved serious adverse events requiring medical attention.⁵
That's more than one in ten women suffering complications serious enough to need emergency care.
The findings blow apart Planned Parenthood's claim that complications are "extremely rare" or that the pills are "safer than Tylenol."⁶
Research shows emergency room visits following chemical abortions have been climbing steadily, with rates growing faster than surgical abortion complications.
A longitudinal study tracking data from 1999 to 2015 found that by 2015, abortion-related emergency room visits following mifepristone had more than doubled compared to surgical procedures — 51.7 per 1,000 chemical abortions versus 22.0 for surgical.⁷
The reasons aren't mysterious when you look at how the Biden administration deregulated these drugs.
In 2016, the FDA extended the gestational limit for chemical abortion from seven to 10 weeks and eliminated the requirement for in-person dispensing.⁸
Then in 2023, the Biden FDA went even further — removing the requirement that drugs be dispensed by a physician and eliminating mandatory reporting of adverse events.⁸
Women are now ordering these pills online, taking them at home with zero medical supervision, and showing up in emergency rooms when things go catastrophically wrong.
Attorney General with track record of fighting woke agenda
Uthmeier isn't some rookie taking on the abortion lobby.
The 37-year-old attorney general served as Governor Ron DeSantis' chief of staff from 2021 to 2025 before being appointed Florida's 39th attorney general in February 2025.⁹
DeSantis called him a "bulldog" who orchestrated and defended the governor's most aggressive conservative initiatives, including fighting federal COVID mandates and dismantling DEI programs in higher education.¹⁰
Uthmeier also chaired political committees that raised over $1 million to defeat Florida's 2024 ballot measures on abortion and marijuana — both of which failed to clear the 60% threshold despite majority support.¹¹
This lawsuit against Planned Parenthood fits perfectly with the America First agenda Uthmeier promised to champion when he took office.
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey filed a similar lawsuit in July 2025 accusing Planned Parenthood of false advertising about mifepristone, seeking nearly $2 million in penalties.¹²
These state-level legal actions come as Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and FDA Commissioner Marty Makary announced a comprehensive federal review of mifepristone's safety and efficacy.¹³
Kennedy has repeatedly stated that the Biden administration "twisted the data" on abortion pills to "bury" safety signals, though he's provided few specifics.¹⁴
The abortion industry's comfortable monopoly on controlling the narrative about chemical abortion is crumbling.
State attorneys general are using consumer protection laws — the same tools prosecutors use against fraudulent vitamin supplements or bogus medical devices — to go after an industry that has hidden the truth from women for decades.
Planned Parenthood can't cite manufactured studies and cherry-picked data when real-world insurance claims show more than 94,000 women suffered serious complications in just six years.
Instead of marketing slogans designed to maximize abortion profits while minimizing legal liability, women deserve the truth about what they're putting in their bodies.
