Federal Funding Ban for Colleges Offering Abortion Services

This bill aims to stop federal funding for higher education institutions that provide abortion drugs or abortions to students or employees through their campus service sites. To remain eligible for government money, colleges will need to annually certify that their facilities do not offer such services. This could impact the availability of certain health services on university campuses.
Key points
Colleges offering abortion drugs or abortions will be prohibited from receiving federal funds.
To maintain eligibility, institutions must submit annual reports certifying no such services are provided.
The bill defines "abortion drug" as any substance intended to terminate a pregnancy, excluding cases for live birth, removing a dead fetus, or treating ectopic pregnancy.
