President Donald Trump took immediate action against women's rights by reinstating a federal ban on U.S. funding for international health organizations that counsel women on family planning options -- including abortion. The first bill to pass in the House of Representatives under President Trump is the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act, which would make it even harder for women to access abortion nationwide by denying abortion coverage under a number of health insurance plans.  Anti-abortion group Live Action released a misleading video about Planned Parenthood's prenatal care options. The video comes less than a week before the "March for Life," where both Vice President Mike Pence and President Donald Trump's Counselor Kellyanne Conway will speak.     Acts of Hate Women's March on Washington co-chair Linda Sarsour was targeted by Islamophobic online attacks in the days after the march.
