Bill 118 hr 4672, also known as the "Prohibition of Abortion in Public Buildings Act," aims to amend title 40 of the United States Code to prevent the Administrator of General Services from constructing or acquiring public buildings or entering into leases based on the legality or availability of abortion. The bill seeks to prohibit any federal funds from being used to support the construction or leasing of public buildings where abortion services are provided.
The main purpose of this bill is to restrict the access to abortion services in public buildings that are funded or leased by the federal government. Supporters of the bill argue that taxpayer dollars should not be used to support abortion services, while opponents argue that this bill restricts women's access to reproductive healthcare.
If passed, this bill would have significant implications for the availability of abortion services in public buildings across the country. It is important to note that this bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process and may undergo changes before it is potentially signed into law.
