This order rescinds key protections enacted after Dobbs to ensure access to abortion.

Anticipated Impact

This order rescinds two Biden administration EOs — issued weeks after the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade — that strengthened or clarified abortion protections nationwide. This Trump order rests on false claims that the rescinded Biden EOs required "forced" federal funding of abortions. The first rescinded EO directed agencies to seek ways to expand access to and share information about reproductive healthcare, and created an interagency task force to coordinate those efforts. That task force made significant gains for people whose rights had been stripped, including clarifying rules for hospitals required to provide emergency care by federal law. The second rescinded Biden EO promoted non-discrimination in, and data collection for, reproductive healthcare.
