U.S. Policy on Abortion

U.S. policy discussions around abortion include its legality and safety, access to later abortion, insurance coverage, the global gag rule, and the Hyde and Helms Amendments. The Guttmacher Institute’s analyses examine how these types of policies promote or impede access to care, as well as the impact they have on people’s lives.
