In a matter of days, Congress may vote on the controversial global gag rule. It bars agencies in foreign countries that receive U.S. aid from providing abortion services or participate in public debate on abortion policies.
The Supreme Court next week is expected to deliver two major rulings on abortion: one on the vague criminal laws that advocates say would bar virtually all abortions; the other, on the “bubble” laws that provide safety zones for abortion clinics.
The drugs that could change the terms of the abortion debate by permitting women to end pregnancies early still have not been approved by
the Food and Drug Administration. A bill barring their approval is in Congress. Bush says he opposes them, too.
