Download CDC Guidelines Removed By The Trump Admin

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more. We’re saving them.

Abortion, Every Day will publish and host these vital documents for as long as necessary. To share deleted documents with Abortion, Every Day, email tips@abortioneveryday.com.
