In plain English
H.R. 685 blocks the Food and Drug Administration from approving any new drugs intended to terminate a pregnancy and tightens restrictions on abortion drugs already approved. For currently approved abortion drugs, the bill requires prescriptions, limits use to the first 70 days of pregnancy, mandates in-person administration by a prescribing doctor, and prohibits that doctor from also serving as the dispensing pharmacist. The bill also requires prescribing doctors to obtain special certification and have the ability to perform surgical intervention. Rep. Robert Latta (R-OH) introduced the bill with 80 Republican cosponsors.
