Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.WASHINGTON -- The nation's largest doctors' group on Thursday asked the Supreme Court to strike down a Trump administration rule that's had a far-reaching impact on family planning by prohibiting taxpayer-funded clinics from referring women for abortions.

-year battles. The recent death of liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has prompted speculation that a more conservative court could overturn the Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion, as well as the Obama health law that expanded coverage and madeBut the changes to Title X, as the federal family planning program is known, are already in effect — and getting much less attention.

The Trump administration's regulation “warps and decimates” Title X, the AMA said in its petition asking the Supreme Court to take the case. Casting the case as an issue of free speech and medical ethics, the AMA said the administration's rule attempts to control communication between clinicians and patients by prohibiting abortion referrals, while at the same time compelling clinics to refer pregnant women for prenatal care, even if a woman has decided that she wants to have an abortion.

Abortion remains a legal medical procedure, but the number and rate of abortions is at its lowest point in nearly 50 years. Improved access to birth control is seen as one of the reasons.

I don't know if taxpayer money should be used for referrals to get an appointment with a doctor to perform an abortion.

That’s right democrats, keep pushing for killing more babies

Why, you know, I never really inderstood how any government could advocate or pay for abortion, it kills their future tax base. It is just really bad business.

Repeal Roe v. Wade. Women, keep your legs closed and hold yourself accountable. And don’t come at me with your “wah but what if your raped”! We aren’t talking about those people, we are talking about the woman who just doesn’t want to have a kid because she didn’t use a condom.

I object on this rule's!!😎

Any woman in danger of a fetus either miscarries or goes in for a c section. Aborting via vaginal dilation is a more lengthy procedure that risks leaving fetal material in the uterus which can threaten the mother’s life.

Why should US taxpayers pay for abortions? The answer is that they shouldn’t. Wise up and stop with the nonsense.

Amy Coney Barrett Says Trump Quickly Offered Her Supreme Court NominationSupreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett disclosed that President Trump had offered her the nomination just days after Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, a timeline that suggests the week of suspense before the pick was publicly revealed was largely for show. Not surprised. I have no doubt favors were exchanged for her nomination. Week of suspence was the media. They wasted a lot of air time on it. In other words, there were 3 days of negotiations.
