The trump administration plans to pull funding from companies that perform abortions. They say it is better for the women, and that abortion clinics violate the law. He considers them not health care and states the funds will go to other "health care" specialized centers, appeasing to anti-choice supporters.

This relates to the women's civil rights movement. The Roe v. Wade court case ruled that planned parenthood was constitutional, even though its still very controversial. The right to choose raising a child was a very large advancement for the movement and should not be taken away
