Here’s how Trump changed abortion in the US this week

Trump’s moves came with backlash from various groups this week.

“With tonight’s actions, the new administration doubled down on its plans to restrict abortion access. It also is blatantly opening up abortion providers and seekers to harassment and threats by anti-abortion zealots who break the law,” Fatima Goss Graves, president and CEO of the National Women’s Law Center said Friday. “Trump’s orders make the agenda clear – this administration will dismantle abortion access both here in the U.S. and abroad. But we know the vast majority of Americans support abortion access – and we will continue to take that stand.”
