UNITED STATES: Further attacks on abortion

On November 21, the US Congress passed a bill that will block funding to any federal, state or local agencies that act against health-care providers and insurers because they do not provide abortions or abortion referrals. Simply, the bill will make it harder for state governments to force clinics and treatment centres to at least tell women that abortion is an option.
