Federal Building Decisions Must Ignore Local Abortion Laws.

This law prohibits the federal agency managing public property (GSA) from considering local abortion laws or services when deciding to buy, build, or lease public buildings. This ensures that the location of federal offices and facilities is based purely on administrative needs, rather than the social policy of a specific state or region. For citizens, this means the availability of federal services will not be tied to local reproductive rights disputes.
Key points
The General Services Administrator (GSA) is forbidden from considering the legality or availability of abortion when acquiring land or buildings.
This prohibition also applies to decisions regarding the construction of new federal facilities and entering into lease agreements.
Public building location decisions must remain neutral regarding social policy, standardizing criteria for federal real estate management.
