AI Summary: Here is a summary: This regulation is an executive order that reinforces the Hyde Amendment's longstanding prohibition on using federal taxpayer funds for elective abortions. The order specifically revokes two previous executive orders related to abortion funding and directs the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to provide guidance to executive departments and agencies on implementing the order's provisions. The executive order emphasizes that federal agencies should not use taxpayer dollars to fund or promote elective abortions, effectively returning to a policy that prevents such funding. The order includes standard legal provisions ensuring it does not impair existing agency authorities and is subject to applicable law and available appropriations. It also explicitly states that it does not create any new legal rights or benefits that could be enforced in court.
