News Wrap: Trump to bar federally funded clinics from making abortion referrals

In our Friday news wrap, the Trump administration announced it will bar federally funded family-planning clinics from referring women for abortions. Abortion opponents applauded the move, while abortion rights advocates condemned it. Also, R&B star R. Kelly will face multiple counts of aggravated sexual abuse. He was charged in Chicago for crimes involving victims between 13 and 17 years old.
