A government website set up by the Biden Administration to promote abortion has been shut down, according to news reports. ReproductiveRights.gov — which was launched on the same day as the announcement of the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision which overturned Roe v. Wade — is no more.

According to Raw Story, “Jan. 15 is the last day that the site was recorded as active, Bloomberg reported, citing the Wayback Machine’s internet archive.”

As Live Action News reported on July 5, 2022, shortly after the website’s launch, the site “[told] women and girls that they have a ‘right to access abortion’ and warn[ed] them that since Roe has been overruled, the level of abortion access is going to vary more than before from state to state. It also [said] the abortion pill is safe (though it’s been found to be four times more dangerous than a first-trimester surgical abortion) and available to be mailed to them at their homes.” As also reported, “The site appears to be part of the administration’s plan to expand abortion in any way possible, as discussed by HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, who said ‘all options are on the table’ when it comes to protecting abortion accessibility.”

The site promoted abortion and birth control much more heavily than any other “reproductive rights” such as pregnancy and parenting; as The Radiance Foundation’s Ryan Bomberger pointed out, the site only referenced the term “pregnant” in relation to a single mention of “prenatal care.”

A foremost priority

Among the foremost priorities of the Biden-Harris administration was promoting abortion as “reproductive freedom” and “reproductive health care.” And as one of his last acts as President, Joe Biden confused even mainstream media by declaring that the pro-abortion Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution (which had a deadline of 1982 to be passed by 38 states and failed to meet this requirement) had been “ratified.” However, as both the U.S. Archivist and Deputy Archivist noted back in December 2024 when Democrats pushed for this exact action from Biden, this isn’t how the constitutional process works.  They said in a joint statement:

In 2020 and again in 2022, the Office of Legal Counsel of the U.S. Department of Justice affirmed that the ratification deadline established by Congress for the ERA is valid and enforceable.

The OLC concluded that extending or removing the deadline requires new action by Congress or the courts. Court decisions at both the District and Circuit levels have affirmed that the ratification deadlines established by Congress for the ERA are valid.

What’s the big deal about the ERA? It impacts things like Title IX as well as abortion. As Live Action News noted in 2021:

In an opinion piece for USA Today, Mercedes Schlapp and Mary Vought explained why the ERA would actually be harmful to women:

…[T]he ERA would actually erode the rights of women recognized in state and federal law. By stating that “equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged … on account of sex,” the amendment would supersede, and effectively eliminate, statutes designed to protect women.

From Title IX, which allows women the ability to compete in sports and earn athletic scholarships, to child support and alimony laws as well as Social Security benefits for surviving spouses, the ERA could be the downfall of many protections for women, said Schlapp and Vought.

In addition, the ERA would expand the taxpayer-funding of abortion and could make abortion a right in the Constitution. Because only women seek abortions, any government policy that was to restrict abortion would now be treating women differently than men — which goes against the ERA.

So, even on his way out of the White House doors, President Biden was attempting to solidify into U.S. law the intentional and direct killing of preborn children by induced abortion.

Is it really ‘up to the states’?

It remains to be seen what actions the incoming Trump Administration may take regarding abortion.

As Donald Trump has stated many times, he believes it is up to the states to decide abortion law, and he has said he would veto any federal legislation attempting to protect preborn children from abortion — even though the Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson did not say that abortion was to be left to states to decide, but to “the people’s elected representatives” — which includes even those at the federal level.

Clearly, pro-abortion Members of Congress understand this fact, as some even attempted to resurrect the extreme, pro-abortion Women’s Health Protection Act in the years since Roe was overturned.

In reality, the decision about which innocent human beings can be legally killed in America shouldn’t be left to any democratic process. The 14th Amendment already recognizes equal rights of all persons; there are, logically and ethically, no human beings who are “less” than persons. To be a human being is to be a person, regardless of one’s abilities or lack of abilities.

The pro-life movement — regardless of who is in the White House, the state house, or the halls of Congress — is not going anywhere, and will continue to defend the right to life of every human being.

Tell President Trump, RFK, Jr., Elon, and Vivek:

Stop killing America’s future. Defund Planned Parenthood NOW!
