N2  - In recent decades, the long arm of US politics has reached the intimate lives of women all over the world. Since 1984, healthcare organizations in developing countries have faced major cuts in US foreign aid if they perform or promote abortions as a method of family planning. The policy-commonly known as the global gag rule - is a hallmark of Republican administrations. The reinstatement & expansion of the global gag rule by Donald Trump in January 2017 caused a firestorm of debate. Proponents emphasize the importance of reducing abortions globally, while critics predict large increases in unsafe abortions & maternal mortality resulting from disruptions to family-planning services. How plausible are the various claims & projections? This question is surprisingly difficult to answer because there is little statistical evidence on the global gag rule.
