The focus has shifted to potential policy changes on abortion as Donald Trump becomes president. Trump has expressed varying opinions on abortion, but experts believe his administration could restrict abortion access nationwide without an explicit ban. Efforts may target medication abortions and restrictions on telehealth or mail delivery. Despite Trump’s support for appointing Supreme Court justices to overturn Roe v. Wade, many experts believe that a federal abortion ban is unlikely. Instead, measures through agencies like the FDA or the Justice Department could restrict access to abortion pills or threaten criminal sanctions for those involved in the administration of abortions. Experts also predict a return of policies from Trump’s previous administration that made abortions harder to obtain. Despite public support for abortion rights, the future of abortion under a second Trump administration remains uncertain due to his inconsistent stance on the issue. Political challenges and legal opposition are expected if any attempts are made to ban abortion nationwide.
