President Joe Biden has signed an executive order aimed in part at making it easier for women seeking abortions to travel between states to obtain access to the procedure.

The order signed Wednesday also calls on health care providers to comply with federal nondiscrimination laws and streamline the collection of key maternal health data.
The order falls short of what many Democratic lawmakers and abortion advocates have demanded of Biden since the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade.
