The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted in 2010, also incorporates the Hyde Amendment. Given the ACA’s significant Medicaid expansion, the law represents the largest expansion of abortion funding restrictions since the Hyde Amendment was first implemented. The ACA also invites states to prohibit abortion coverage in private plans—and many have done so: Twenty-five states have laws essentially banning abortion coverage in plans that will be offered through the health insurance exchanges, including 10 states that ban insurance coverage of abortion more broadly in all private insurance plans regulated by the state. And, just like the federal government, 21 states have banned abortion coverage in insurance plans for public employees.
