Women who get an abortion and anyone who helps them could face up to 30 years in prison under the bill.
It appears to ban any contraception that prevents a fertilized egg from implanting. That would ban IUDs and could strictly limit in-vitro fertilization.

This is part of eugenics btw, it's plain as day why Trump's administration is cutting disability support again.
There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.
America’s children deserve better than this.

Whether you call it a cut in benefits or not, an estimated 10.9 million people would lose health insurance as a result of changes to Medicaid and the ACA passed by the House. This would be the biggest rollback in federal support for health care ever.
