Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf (D) vetoed a bill Wednesday that would have expanded telemedicine services during the coronavirus outbreak because it excluded access to at-home, drug-induced abortions.
Wolf, who has typically rejected pro-life legislation, vetoed Senate Bill 857, a measure that would have expanded virtual medical services for those unable to see their doctors in person, because the bill prohibited access to drugs to induce at-home abortions.
In a veto message, the governor said a Pennsylvania House amendment to the legislation that banned telemedicine services that are not approved under the Food and Drug Administrations (FDA) Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) was not acceptable to him.
The abortion drug Mifeprex has not been approved under REMS.
I supported a prior printers number of the bill, but as amended in the House of Representatives, this legislation arbitrarily restricts the use of telemedicine for certain doctor-patient interactions, Wolf said. As amended, this bill interferes with womens health care and the crucial decision-making between patients and their physicians.
In 2018, abortion giant Planned Parenthood announced it was spending $1.5 million to reelect Wolf, who has repeatedly vetoed pro-life legislation such as a measure that would ban dismemberment abortions and another that would ban abortions based on a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome.
On Monday, national pro-life leaders sent a letter to FDA Commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn urging him to take action to block the illegal Internet sale of abortion-inducing drugs that are produced overseas and then shipped to the United States.
In a press release, the leaders observed that, under REMS, Mifeprex and its generic form, mifepristone, cannot legally be sold in pharmacies or online due to the risk of serious complications.
