Trump Doj puts an end to the Biden era policy which allows taxes to indirectly pay the abortions

The Trump Administration reversed a legal opinion from the Bidy era of the Ministry of Justice on Thursday which allowed dollars taxpayers to be used for auxiliary services associated with a person to obtain an abortion, such as transport costs.

The policy has been particularly used to help minor migrants unaccompanied to obtain abortions, according to the Trump administration.

In the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to cancel Roe v. Wade in 2022, the Department of Health and Social Services estimated that taxpayers’ dollars – even if they are prohibited by the Congress from being used to pay the abortions directly as part of the HYDE amendment – could be used to provide transport services for patients requesting abortion. The Bureau of Legal Councils of the Ministry of Justice (OLC), accused of interpretation of the laws for the president and the executive branch agencies, agreed at the time of the Biden administration.

However, this interpretation and this opinion were upset after Trump’s OLC published a new Thursday which prohibits taxpayers’ funds from going to “auxiliary services” that could help someone to have an abortion.

The opinion of OLC of the Biden era of 2022 was the basis of the HHS refugee resettlement office (Orr) to use federal funds to help unaccompanied minors to obtain transport and other services supporting an abortion, according to the opinion of July 11 published Thursday.

“Current regulations force the orr to” ensure that all children not accompanied by the orr care … are provided with … access to … family planning services “and recognize that” transport through state lines and associated auxiliary services “may be necessary to access” these “family planning services”, according to the new opinion.

“When such transport services are necessary for an individual to obtain an abortion, the associated costs constitute the type of indirect expenditure that the hyde amendment limits after 1993”, continues opinion. “In current circumstances, interstate transport costs could overshadow the cost of the abortion procedure itself. It would therefore be incompatible with the longtime congress policy – as the textual bar of the Hyde amendment (ITS) reflects for any abortion” – so that HHS does not finance such expenses because they do not reach the person or entry “.”

In 1993, the Congress changed the statutory language of the Hyde amendment, which led to years of disputes on the interpretation of the measure.

The opinion of the new OLC published Thursday argues that the 1993 change has expanded the Hyde amendment to include everything that is done in the service of a person receiving an abortion, not just abortion itself.

The decision to strengthen the protections of the Hyde amendment follows the decree of President 14182, asking agencies to “end the forced use of dollars of federal taxpayers to finance or promote elective abortion”.
