A federal website on reproductive rights has vanished

A federal website for information on reproductive rights and healthcare access is suddenly down, following Donald Trump’s inauguration yesterday. Reproductiverights.gov seemed to be offline as of last night, CBS reports.

The Biden administration launched the website in 2022 in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. On top of information about abortion rights, the website also included resources on accessing preventative care, including breast and cervical cancer screenings, prenatal care, and HIV screening. (The Internet Archive has a snapshot of what the website looked like as recently as January 15th.)

Scientists, researchers, and health and environmental advocates have been bracing for potential changes to federal websites under the Trump administration. They’ve been worried about federal agencies curtailing publicly available information about hot-button topics on their websites, particularly when it comes to climate change.

The Department of Health and Human Services, which previously ran the reproductiverights.gov website didn’t immediately respond to an inquiry from The Verge.

So far, federal websites on climate change seem to be up and running. During Trump’s first term in office, access to as much as 20 percent of the Environmental Protection Agency website was removed, and there was a near 40 percent decline in the term “climate change” across websites for federal environmental agencies.
