Sherrill blasts federal abortion probe as HHS opens investigation into 13 states

Marlton, NJ – Governor Mikie Sherrill on Thursday forcefully pushed back against a newly announced federal investigation into abortion coverage policies, calling the Trump administration’s move a “fishing expedition” as New Jersey becomes one of 13 states under review. The response comes hours after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services confirmed it is examining whether certain states are violating federal conscience protections tied to abortion coverage.
