NonilexOf the ~25M #women who receive #ContraceptiveCare annually, 18% receive it from publicly supported #clinics, including #TitleX-funded centers, Baden said. They include women who are #LowIncome or #underinsured.
In 2019, during #Trump’s first term, his admin altered the half-century-old program banning clinics receiving Title X aid from referring patients for abortions.

From the article: “It’s difficult to overstate how catastrophic this freeze has been over the last several weeks,” says Amy Friedrich-Karnik, director of federal policy at the Guttmacher Institute, a research and policy organization focused on global sexual and reproductive health and rights. “Every single day that the freeze is in place, there are 130,000 women who are being denied contraceptive care,” she says.
"The Guttmacher Institute estimates that should USAID funding be frozen for the full 90 days, around 11.7 million women and girls would lose access to contraceptive care, and 4.2 million of them would experience unintended pregnancies. Of those, “8,340 will die from complications during pregnancy and childbirth,” says Friedrich-Karnik."
