The "Equal Access to Abortion Coverage in Health Insurance Act of 2025" seeks to guarantee affordable abortion services for all individuals, regardless of their race, income, or insurance type. The bill highlights that current federal funding bans and state-level restrictions, particularly following the Dobbs decision, have significantly limited abortion access for millions, disproportionately affecting low-income individuals and women of color. It asserts that access to abortion is fundamental for individual health, economic security, and overall societal well-being. To achieve its objectives, the bill mandates that all specified federal health programs and plans, including Medicaid , Medicare , CHIP , TRICARE , and the Indian Health Service , must provide comprehensive coverage for abortion services. Additionally, the Federal Government, in its role as a healthcare provider, is required to ensure access to abortion services within its own facilities or through contracted providers. These provisions are designed to eliminate current federal restrictions that prevent these programs from covering abortion care. The legislation further prohibits the Federal Government from imposing restrictions on abortion coverage by state or local governments or private health plans. It specifically repeals Section 1303 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which allowed states to limit abortion coverage in marketplace plans. Crucially, the bill states that it supersedes all other federal laws and is not subject to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993, ensuring its broad applicability and impact on expanding abortion access nationwide.
