Concerns grow over abortion access under potential Trump administration

Concerns are rising about abortion access under a potential new Trump administration, especially in states like Maryland that have recently protected abortion rights. Maryland voters approved a measure to enshrine abortion access in the state constitution, marking a significant development. Project 2025, a conservative initiative, aims to restrict reproductive health services federally. It suggests measures like defunding Medicaid programs and reversing the approval of abortion medications, raising questions about how these actions could affect states with strong abortion protections. While Maryland has taken steps to safeguard abortion access, the threat of federal restrictions looms. The impact of a second Trump presidency on abortion rights remains uncertain, with legal challenges anticipated if federal bans are enacted.
