What began as a Senate hearing on abortion medication safety quickly shifted into a confrontation over language, biology, and identity inside a U.S. committee room. During a session of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, Senator Josh Hawley repeatedly pressed a medical witness with a blunt question: can men get pregnant?
Dr. Nisha Verma, an OB-GYN and reproductive health adviser, declined a yes-or-no reply, instead emphasizing patient care and medical evidence. She told senators abortion pills are among the most studied drugs in reproductive healthcare, used by millions since 2000, warning that political framing should not override clinical science.
