California files first major lawsuit to block Trump administration’s abortion ‘gag rule’ in family planning program
Abortion rights activists and other backers of Planned Parenthood at a demonstration in New York last month against the Trump administration’s Title X rule change.
The rule imposes what administration officials have referred to as a “bright line” of physical and financial separation between the provision of family planning and abortion services, effectively requiring Planned Parenthood to drastically alter its operations, or else cease to receive an estimated $60 million in annual funding.
California is just one of many parties – including the American Civil Liberties Union and the Center for Reproductive Rights – that have vowed to sue in recent days. Supporters of the new rule, which include numerous religious and anti-abortion organizations, have pointed to how the Supreme Court upheld similar regulations in 1991′s Rust v. Sullivan in a 5-4 decision.
