Bill Summary

A bill to end the use of taxpayer funds for entities that perform, provide referrals for, or provide funding for, abortions, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, titled the "End Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Providers Act," aims to prohibit federal funds from being provided to any entity, its affiliates, subsidiaries, successors, or clinics that perform abortions, provide abortion referrals, or fund other entities that perform abortions. The bill includes two specific exceptions where federal funds could still be used for abortion services: first, in cases of pregnancies resulting from rape or incest, and second, when a physician certifies that the woman's physical condition would place her in danger of death without an abortion. The legislation is designed to apply to all future federal statutory law unless a specific law explicitly excludes its application. The prohibition would take effect 60 days after the bill's enactment, and the bill explicitly states that it does not interfere with existing abortion-related limitations in appropriations acts. By restricting federal funding, the bill seeks to limit financial support for organizations that provide abortion services across various contexts.
