Learn How The Comstock Act Of 1873 Could Could Destroy Access to Abortion in 2025
SO WHO IS THIS MONSTER?
Check out our ‘zine and watch our exclusive interview with “Comstock himself” to get all the tea on this 19th Century puritanical killjoy and how he single-handedly created one of the most threatening laws to our bodily autonomy.
Ok, Sure. Dude’s A Creep, But Would Modern Day Politicians REALLY Try To Enforce The Comstock Act?
YEP! They already are.
Justice Clarence Thomas warned the manufacturer of the abortion pill mifepristone, “Mailing your product and advertising it would violate the Comstock Act.”
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito called The Comstock Act a “prominent provision” and not some “obscure section of a complicated law.”
145 GOP Senators and Congressional members urged SCOTUS to use Comstock to ban mifepristone, claiming the FDA “blatantly disregarded” the law by allowing abortion pills by mail.
Project 2025 advises that the Comstock Act should be used to ban abortion.
