Biden issues second executive order to protect abortion access

Summary by Ground News

President Joe Biden on Wednesday signed an executive order that lays the groundwork for Medicaid to help women seeking abortions to travel between states to obtain access to the procedure. The details are still being worked out, and the administration faces a challenging legal landscape because it's illegal to use federal funding to pay for abortions unless the woman's life is in danger or the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest. The National Abortion Federation said Wednesday that it's seen more women asking for help traveling to get the procedure in the month after the decision.
