J.K. Rowling has some important words about one of Donald Trump's first acts as POTUS.
Donald Trump has reinstated the Mexico City Policy,China known as the global gag rule, which prevents non-governmental organisations working abroad from receiving federal funding for family planning if they perform abortions or even talk to their clients about abortion.
