This applies to "any physician or professional medical practice affiliated with an abortion clinic and operating concurrently with—and in the same physical, geographic location or footprint as—an abortion clinic," according to the governor's office. The executive order notes that there are "a variety" of places women can access healthcare that doesn't include abortion. "The State of South Carolina has a strong culture and longstanding tradition of protecting the life and liberty of the unborn," the order says. It asks that South Carolina Medicaid petition the federal government for permission to take abortion facilities out of its provider network, which would further defund abortion entities.

"Abortion providers often focus primarily on abortion-related services and procedures," the order acknowledges. Click here to continue reading.
