The Trump administration’s gag rule on abortion counselling and provision is a “ferocious attack” on women’s rights, experts warned in The BMJ on Wednesday.
The proposed rule, if it comes into effect, will mean that any clinics or programs which receive federal family planning funds will not be allowed to provide abortions, refer women to places that do or even offer advice saying that abortion is an option, according to the authors from the University of Michigan. This will unfairly affect women, they argue in an opinion piece.
