MARCH FOR LIFE PREVIEW:

  • President Trump is First Commander-in-Chief Scheduled to Address Anti-Abortion 'March for Life' 

  • Senate set to take up Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The Senate is likely to vote this month on a bill that would ban abortion after 20 weeks of gestation, sources familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner.

  • Trump to protect US health workers who oppose abortion
    Washington (AFP) - US officials on Thursday announced the creation of a new office to protect the religious rights of medical providers who refuse to perform procedures they say are against their beliefs, such as abortion. The office, part of the Department of Health and Human Services' Civil Rights division, is also aimed at supporting health care professionals who oppose procedures such as gender reassignment operations. President Donald Trump "promised the American people that his administration would vigorously uphold the rights of conscience and religious freedom. That promise is being kept today," said acting HHS Secretary Eric Hargan, as he announced the new Conscience and Religious Freedom Division. Groups that support abortion and the rights of sexual minorities fear this could result in discrimination in access to medical treatment.
