RU-486 Documents from FDA

In an effort to appease pro-abortion activists, the Clinton Food and Drug Administration hastily approved the abortion pill, RU-486, on September 28, 2000. Judicial Watch immediately filed a FOIA request and then battled the government in court to force the release of documents pertaining to the decision to approve the drug. In August 2007, Judicial Watch received 175 pages of new documents pertaining to the abortion pill RU-486 that had previously been withheld by the Food and Drug Administration (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Food and Drug Administration, et al. (on remand 00-2973)).
