With the Hyde amendment yep, makes abortion illegal for any person on the plan, and that would presumably be a lot of women. Also expect the right to demand something like that in the program, too, to make sure. It's a path for restricting access to abortion and other things, IMO. I'd like to hear Sanders explicitly address that and convince me that wouldn't happen and that reproductive rights, including abortion and contraception, will be protected under his plan.
