The provision of the One Big Beautiful Bill preventing Medicaid reimbursements to abortion providers was at the center of arguments on Wednesday at a federal appeals court, which has regularly had its rulings in Trump policy cases halted by the Supreme Court.

The three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, all of whom were appointed to the court by former President Joe Biden, heard an appeal by the Justice Department of a lower court’s order blocking the provision of the law that prevents Medicaid reimbursements for healthcare providers that receive more than $800,000 annually in funds from the program and that also provide abortion services.
