This is the cruelty of abortion bans on full display. This is not “pro-woman,” “pro-life,” or “pro-family,” this is inhumanity.

What did veterans get as a holiday gift from the President? A targeted, dangerous abortion ban, issued quietly overnight. It's unconscionable. This entire administration should be ashamed.

Trump's VA just banned abortion care for veterans—even in cases of rape, incest, or threats to health.
This is cruel, and dangerous.

ICYMI, the House GOP has been working overtime — not to extend the expiring tax credits that help millions of people afford their premiums — but to sneak a nationwide abortion coverage ban into the health care marketplace. It's back on the House floor today.

If Republicans don't extend ACA subsidies, people are going to die. Now, they’re trying to tie Americans' health care to abortion restrictions that kill women.
It’s absolutely a non-starter. We won’t allow Republicans to use the lives of women as the political cost of extension.

When basic health care is criminalized, people do not suddenly stop needing it. It just becomes more dangerous for them to access.
Republicans' extreme abortion bans across the country have not stopped people needing care, just forced women to find another way.

The percentage of medication abortions arranged via telehealth grew again in the first half of 2025, according to a report, despite Republican efforts to keep doctors in blue states from prescribing pills to women in states where abortion is illegal.
More women accessing abortion pills online despite red state efforts
The report found that more than a quarter of abortions in the first half of 2025 were provided via telehealth, continuing the trend toward medication abortion over other methods .

Republicans can choose to fix the health care crisis they created. Instead, they're doubling down on dysfunction, shoving us into a shutdown—all while doing nothing to restore or protect the health care access that hangs in the balance.
