Restoring Safeguards for Dangerous Abortion Drugs Act mandates stricter controls on mifepristone.
The Restoring Safeguards for Dangerous Abortion Drugs Act requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to reinstate a specific risk evaluation and mitigation strategy for mifepristone, a drug used in abortions. The act also bans the importation of mifepristone into the United States. It allows individuals harmed by mifepristone to sue for compensatory and punitive damages, along with attorney's fees and costs. The act defines "covered entity" as any person who knowingly imports or transports mifepristone in violation of federal law.
