Government's reproductive rights resource goes dark hours into new Trump administration

Government's reproductive rights resource goes dark hours into new Trump administration

Story by Erik De La Garza • 2h ago (2000, January 20th, 2025)

Americans searching for reproductive health resources will have one less option after President Donald Trump’s new administration on Monday made shuttering a government website focused on women's health care among the first moves of his second presidency.

Hours after Trump was inaugurated as the country’s 47th president, it was reported that the website ReproductiveRights.gov shutdown.

The website provided information on “birth control, medication, abortion services, and other preventive health services, as well as important facts about privacy, rights associated with reproductive health care, and how people with and without health insurance can obtain reproductive health care,” according to the Office of Population Affairs.

Jan. 15 is the last day that the site was recorded as active, Bloomberg reported, citing the Wayback Machine's internet archive. The move comes as reproductive rights groups and activists nationwide plan to launch a vigorous pushback on the new administration’s policies on women’s health care.
