Executive Order 14182

[1] The first Trump administration reinstated and expanded the "Mexico City policy," a rule originally established by President Ronald Reagan, which prohibits U.S. funding for organizations that provide abortion services or support groups that do.

[2] The policy has been criticized by opponents, who argue that it reduces funding for essential health services in developing countries, such as birth control, infant nutrition, and HIV/AIDS treatment, while supporters view it as a way to align U.S. foreign aid with anti-abortion principles.

[3] In response to the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade, President Joe Biden signed two key executive orders to protect reproductive rights.

The order called for federal action to support women's health, mitigate confusion around healthcare provisions, and protect the ability of patients to access care, including abortion services, across state lines.

[5] President Donald Trump signed an executive order enforcing the Hyde Amendment and rescinding actions from the Biden administration intended to expand abortion access.
