Purpose and Summary

Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Bill 119 HR 1465, also known as the "Restricting Federal Funds for Abortion Providers Act," aims to limit the amount of Federal funds that can be allocated to organizations that are affiliated with the abortion industry. The bill specifically targets organizations that provide abortion services or are associated with abortion providers.

If passed, this legislation would restrict Federal funding to these organizations, potentially impacting their ability to provide a wide range of healthcare services beyond abortion. Supporters of the bill argue that Federal funds should not be used to support organizations that provide abortion services, as it goes against their beliefs or values.

Opponents of the bill argue that restricting Federal funds to these organizations could have negative consequences for women's healthcare access, particularly for low-income individuals who rely on these organizations for a variety of healthcare services. They also argue that this bill could infringe on women's reproductive rights and limit their access to safe and legal abortion services. Overall, Bill 119 HR 1465 is a controversial piece of legislation that highlights the ongoing debate surrounding abortion rights and Federal funding for organizations associated with the abortion industry.
