WASHINGTON - February 27, 2009 - A Health and Human Services official said Friday the
administration will publish an official notice of its intentions
early next week, and open a 30-day comment period for advocates,
medical groups and the public. The official spoke on condition of
anonymity because the notice has not been finalized.
The Bush administration instituted the rule in its last days. It
has already been challenged in court. Abortion opponents hailed the
Bush regulation, but abortion rights advocates say it could reduce
access to other services, such as birth control.
