“In order for women to exercise their right and freedom to control their bodies, doctors need the proper reproductive health care training,” Baldwin said. “The Reproductive Health Care Training Act will bolster the pipeline of these needed doctors by easing the burden that out-of-state training presents and supporting the medical programs that are seeing an influx of individuals that need training.
Under the bill, which is supported by pro-abortion organizations like Planned Parenthood, the grant program would prioritize awarding entities located in pro-abortion states where “abortion care is permitted and/or comprehensively taught,” as well as entities in states where abortion training is limited, “minority serving institutions,” or “institutions that provide training to increase underrepresented minority health professions.
Award recipients would also be able to integrate abortion training into healthcare education, or develop partnerships with community health organizations to “enhance access to abortion care.”Another use of the funding includes working to boost retention rates of abortionists who work in medically underserved communities.
