'Overbearing government': Trump administration takes action against California for requiring abortion coverage.....
The Trump administration is warning California to stop enforcing its law obligating health insurers to cover abortions, saying that the state could face the loss of federal funding if it doesn't comply.
California has 30 days to go along with the order, said Roger Severino, the director of the Office for Civil Rights within the Trump administration's health agency. "They have every opportunity to do the right thing to be in compliance with the law," he said.
As part of its latest actions to uphold its promises, the administration is accusing California of violating a rule attached to spending bills, called the Weldon Amendment, that says states and other government entities cannot discriminate against healthcare providers that don't provide or pay for abortions if they receive federal funding.
"The state is not free to force people to pay for other people's abortions," he said in a phone call with reporters Friday. …..snip~

Trump should do the same to New York, Oregon and Washington State. Especially New York. Keep on taking that Federal funding away from them.
