Senator Ted Budd, a prominent political figure known for his advocacy on military and health-related issues, has recently shared several statements via social media addressing the significance of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base and concerns regarding chemical abortions.
On May 6, 2025, Senator Budd expressed pride in representing Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. He highlighted the base’s importance as a center for F-15 training excellence. In light of an unexpected increase in pilot training demands, Budd emphasized that “our base’s mission is more vital than ever.” He urged the U.S. Air Force to ensure the necessary resources are available to continue training top-tier pilots. “Proud to represent Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, home of F-15 excellence…”
The following day, May 7, 2025, Senator Budd turned his attention to the issue of chemical abortions. He stated that these procedures “destroy human life and often come with serious or life-threatening side effects for women.” The senator called on the FDA to reconsider both medical and societal risks associated with mifepristone being available on the market. “Chemical abortions destroy human life and often come with serious or life-threatening side effects for women.”
In a subsequent tweet on May 7, 2025, Budd cited data indicating that “more than 10 percent of women in the U.S. who use mifepristone experience a serious adverse event,” further supporting his call for reevaluation by health authorities.“More than 10 percent of women in the U.S. who use mifepristone experience a serious adverse event.”
Seymour Johnson Air Force Base is located in Goldsboro, North Carolina.
