What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act," seeks to amend title X of the Public Health Service Act. It would prohibit the Secretary from providing assistance under this title to any entity that performs abortions. To receive assistance, an entity must certify that it will not perform abortions or provide funds to any other entity that performs them. The bill includes exceptions for abortions resulting from rape or incest, or those where a physician certifies the woman faces danger of death. Hospitals are also exempted from this prohibition provided they do not fund non-hospital entities that perform abortions.

Would women be better off under this?-6
The bill restricts access to abortion services and family planning through the removal of federal funding for many providers.
Does this narrow the gap between how men and women are treated?-5
The restriction on reproductive health funding disproportionately affects women's control over their reproductive health.
