Trump Reinstates Anti-Abortion Policies Impacting Domestic and International Aid
In a series of executive actions, Trump has reinstated the Mexico City Policy, effectively banning U.S. funding for international organizations that provide or promote access to abortion. This decision marks a significant reversal of previous policies aimed at protecting abortion access. The reinstatement of the Global Gag Rule and enforcement of the Hyde Amendment means taxpayer dollars will no longer support abortion services both domestically and abroad. Critics, including reproductive rights advocates, have condemned these actions as detrimental to healthcare access worldwide, arguing they threaten the rights of pregnant individuals and the availability of essential reproductive health services.
