President Joe Biden on July 8 signed an executive order aimed at ensuring women can get abortions.
Biden directed the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to expand access to various methods of abortion, including a Food and Drug Administration-approved pill called Mifeprex that can be taken to kill a fetus up to the 10th week of pregnancy. The agency will also make sure pregnant women have access to emergency medical care and step up efforts to educate the public on abortion access.
