The president reinstated and expanded the ban on providing federal money to international family planning groups that perform or provide information about abortions. Critics say without this funding many organizations will not be able to provide services for combating HIV, Zika, and other diseases. The executive orders follow a weekend of protests, most notably last week’s Women’s March (January 21). In Washington, Los Angeles, New York, and hundreds of other cities around the world, more than two million women gathered to protest the inauguration of Trump, as well as many of his policies.
