Another event to make my shake my head in awe. It seems that a U.S. government funded health database no longer returns results when one searches for the term abortion.
Update: thanks to LISNews, who shared the news that Popline, the database noted above, unlocked the abortion search sometime today. Yay to the power of social software for bringing attention to the problem and inciting action!
