Özet:
The Mexico City Policy is a restriction on family planning aid to developing countries, blocking U.S. funds to NGOs that provide abortion-related services. This policy, first announced in 1984, has since been repealed during Democratic administrations and reinstated during Republican ones. Comparing Ghanaian women who are more or less exposed to the policy when the policy is effect and not, I use a difference-in-difference analysis to identify the relative impact of the policy. I find that rural women are differentially impacted by the policy in terms of some fertility outcomes, but no significant effect is seen on maternal or child mortality. From a policy perspective, the fertility results join prior studies of the policy's potential unintended consequences, while other findings may simply highlight the difficulty of isolating differential exposure and emphasize the need for further study.
